Ah yes, the commercials where all a woman wanted was a moist cake mix and a clean oven.

Please let me know if you ever find that old Lifesavers commercial.

Here is the Happy Days parody:

The one with the BB game and Lifesavers at the end...

Happy Days A Shot In The Dark Part 3

@corydwalker The Presto Burger was more for fun than practical use. It made crispy burgers and smokey rooms. Meat would stick so opening when checking for wellness resulted in a torn burger. Could only cook one burger at a time, sharing each burger was the norm. Messy and hard to clean. The burger doesn't cook in its own grease and burger edges were pale. Loved watching grease and juices ooze out the sides and see the drippings cook. Both sides cooking was loud. Placed into storage quickly.

@dvdfrnzwbr Thanks. It's hard to read b/c of the copying of the video.

@corydwalker On the screen at the beginning of the Radio Shack commercial the name Paul Burke is shown. If you Google his name and Radio Shack you can find more of his commercials for the company.

HA! George Foreman stole the idea from Presto! I remember my dad bought one and used it once. Many years later I bought a George Foreman grill..and used it once.

Looking for an add that appeared in the mid to late 70s for Mrs Baird's bread. I know it wasn't a national brand, at least not at the time, but I would really like to see it again. It featured no talking but a man making himself a hamburger and at the end he takes a bite and smiles. It was the music soundtrack that was the best part.

Loved the life savers ad. STILL looking for the one from the same period with the kid and the hockey game...they parodied it on a Happy Days episode around that time...would LOVE to see it again...

Comical ad or not, the super-heroine in the Wyler's ad is "nice" (the actress seems familiar, but I'm not sure who it is).

Do you have any later ones for 409? I'm always looking for one from about 1982.
