I had an old pair of these roller skates in our garage until we downsized to move into our retirement center.

Does anyone "remember" Woolworth? ๐Ÿค”

 

Per GOOGLE.

 

At the time of its centennial celebration, the company operated 4000 stores in the United States and abroad. However, time caught up with Woolworth's and its final US locations closed in 1997. But the Woolworth name is still alive in Mexico and its โ€œred-frontโ€ stores still serve and satisfy a loyal customer base. Oct 24, 2020

I was born in the 50's and remember trips to Woolworth with my Mamamae (grandma).

 

We did food and merchandise.

 

Their "shakes" were DELICIOUS!!!

 

She purchased her crochet threads from them. A very talented lady who taught me to crochet. She did a dress and to this day I still "marvel" at this.

I remember Woolworth, but Kresge's (S. S. Kresge) was more common in my area, same dimestore setup as Woolworth, & had a lunch counter too.  Woolworth still thrives in the UK I believe.

 

Our Dollar stores are now gone in this past wave of inflate, I always liked Dollar Tree, as I knew what my bill would be by the # of items (Less tax of course).
