I've never been to a Menards. I first heard of them from Nascar cars, lol. Then we drove past a few on the way to Myrtle Beach.

I vaguely recall Toy Guys. It was a northeast chain. My dad worked there apparently in the 70s. They went out of business in the 80s. The one store I recall, became a grocery store years later that then got torn down in the 2000s and is now a Cabela's.

That's a good history like. More people need to spread their memories likes that, even if it's a small description :)

That was a good 1993, 30 year old Walmart commercial there :scbaf:
