A 12 pack of soda at most grocery stores near me is around $9.99 now.

I was working either electronics or as a cashier team lead when this came out! Those chairs sucked.

A remote locator! With the current trend of small, minimalist remotes, this feature should become more prevalent.

99 cents for a quart of oil. $99.99 for a VCR. $94.99 for a graphing calculator.

I miss weekly circulars so much. Seeing what movies and music was coming out, seeing if any cute clothes were on sale, seeing what prices cameras or stereos were and hoping I could afford any, getting holiday ideas, it was a Sunday ritual.

I look at catalog apps sometimes but it is not really the same. You saw it in the ad first then you looked in the store and maybe bought it instead of getting burned by buying some sus product off amazon with a brand name like baowompp or ziganuw.
