Anyone remember some of the old department stores no longer in business ? A few here in Mo were Venture, Sears Roebuck, Stix Baer and Fuller ( I believe it became Dillards)  Woolworth.  We often shopped Venture, it was one of our favorites.

I remember Sears and Kmart, Burdines and also Woolworth's too.

Here in PA as a kid I can remember Grant's, Hills, Ames, Gee Bee, Pomeroy's,

Hess's, Kmart, those are the first stores that come to mind.

Always loved the soft pretzels and slushies at Hills at the entrance to the store,

Slushies were cherry or coke or a combo.
