Remembers carrying your winter coat over your arm because it was so hot in there?

Hot in where?

I remember it when I was a kid but now I don't even wear much less own a coat. A hoodie is all I need and even then it's usually off by 9 am. I was in Costco and had a light sweater on yesterday and I was roasting.

@Bonkers1 If you mean the mall, then YES! When DD was young, she frequented a particular clothing store, the name escapes me, that was hotter than hades. It also had music blaring. I usually had to walk outside.
ETA: Why would the store make it so uncomfortable???

@PA Mom-mom I agree! My DD probaly went to the same store. You would think it was a nightclub with the loud music!!
I can remember being so hot and then my back would start to ache and I couldn't wait to get out of there....thank goodness for online shopping!

Nope. Leave it in the car and RUN in!!!! Sweatshirt or sweater enough for where I live. Unless ice fallling from the sky.

Coats were warmer back in the olden days and the climate colder. I remember my last car coat before I moved South; ultra heavy wool tweed, interlining and substantial quilted lining, with huge shawl collar. You can no longer find coats like that.

Growing up in the north of the Northeast, I recall dying when wearing a winter coat in school and lining up for the bus, wearing it in the malls or stores. It was gross and I was always sweaty. I am still gross and sweaty when I wear my coats
, still being in the Northeast. I get cold too quickly and need to wear a coat, then I am hot (the vicious cycle, lol). I recall seeing a brand on Q, Arctic Expedition item A661553, that had the straps inside the back of the coat for you to put over your shoulders and carry it that way without having to "wear" the coat. I thought that was so smart, but I don't need another winter coat.

@PA Mom-mom was it Hollister with the blaring music? They were one of them for sure.
