$250 for a typewriter, holy crap that's expensive. You couldn't give that thing away now.

I HATED Toughskins but would gladly wear them again to live back in the 70's!!!

[ariannabanane]

hahaha I work at Sears & I think I've seen that shirt that lady wears under that parka still in the store :L Or it's something hideously similar. Things stay in that store for YEARS.. or some how gets returned by a newbie cashier or it lost its tag.. gets put in the back with the racks of untagged stuff, and isn't seen out on the floor for AGES. :'DD

[chipethecat]

@ariannabanane i know i don't work there but iv seen old things and a very old tv there one time.

AT LEAST LITTLE GIRLS DIDN'T DRESS LIKE WHORES SO THAT CHILD MOLESTERS WOULD TAKE NOTICE. I HATE THESE PARENTS WHO DRESS THEIR DAUGHTERS LIKE WHORES AND PUT MAKE UP ON THEM. SHAME ON YOU PARENTS WHO DO THAT.

this era was the beginning of the end for sears. Yes they were still ontop but catalog started going downhill. Their apparel was way too isolated from the pulse of real world fashion until they became almost a joke. Sears owned the playing field in the70s but this made them complacent and deaf to changing tastes in 80's. same thing could happen to microsoft.

Correct errors with ease. Simply press "delete" and watch the typewriter retype your mistake over a strip of tape with white out dust on one side. Hopefully the tape won't get snarled, so don't press the "delete" key too fast. Then wait 3 minutes and re-type over the white out dust, once it has hopefully already dried. Easy indeed!

[whoasuckaa]

imagine how much worse it would be if she reversed that reversible parka

[mileyrayjenn45]

[RudyIzCool]

Toughskins jeans!! NOOOOOO!! I hated them stiff-ass pants. Another reason I hated going back to school...UGH!

[pannoni1]

We were about to end a recession to start the longest proseperous period in world history, lasting for the next 25 years. But doesn't it stink when you see that first back-to-school commercial every July to tell you that summer will come to a close?

[38Squid]

I hated toughskins. Nice typewriters though.Sears kicked ass in the early 80s.

[HGbunny]

@38Squid And J C Penny's Plainpockets brand. The other kis treated you bad enough if you couldn't afford the Jordache & the Sergio Valente's, but they figured your parents should at least be able to find a cheap pair of Bon Jours or Brittanias.

(My Mom didn't follow that logic...it was whatever was at the consignment store. These days, considering the past couple of years, people understand it's just great to have clothing.)

[stuvo1977]

@HGbunny Plain pockets and Toughskins sucked. Ditto for rustlers too...Levis were the preferred brand

[freebeer187]

LOL

[ccvid07]

ha ha a type writer how ancient

[boelvira]

i'm glad i no longer live in a world where they advertise pleated pants. lol

[iluvspongebob88]

i second that!

[BigTMan1]

Darn right.

[braingun64]

Reimagine yourself by shopping and saving at Sears.

[apachette07]

I agree with PeterPW...

[PeterPW]

It was a better time...
