Acid - That's great that all three of Us have good times with Our Grandmas :) That's what I'm talkin' about, share your memories more often, everyday that you don't...you never ever want them to go to Oblivion. If you read My Glory Days of Movie Rentals in My Odds & Ends which is My most imperative showcase I've ever done and perhaps will ever do, then you know My deep emotional story with My Grandma. In short, it was in 1990, 35 year ago this coming August...Me & My Grandma MiMi were in Our good but empty house now because we're ready to move to a new one :roll: We walked right down the street to out great 7-11 that actually had movie rentals and I discovered many great movies there including House 1 & 2 and Invaders from Mars. I always loved their Nachos, Cheese & Chili. We got a couple of of'em as a good-bye dinner as we are on the floor with nothing bedsides Us but space. My Grandpa was at his A&M Bike Shop down the street & Mom was working at Sears in Crestwood so it was just Me & MiMi like many times together. We were talking about this & that long before phubbing with phones was ever a thought. 1990 was such a great year for so many things in movies & music, wrestling, toys, comics, video games, you name it, yet it has some bittersweet moments which I look to post a lot from 1990 among 1995 and other years that has anniversaries within Packer's Topics and of course My own so be alert for it. If your wondering, yes, I got Bubble Gum of all kinds there. My most memorable that I have mentioned & showcased before was the Trading Cards of Batman 89 & Nintendo with Bubble Gum by Topps, IMO as kid, you couldn't get any better than that :)

Packer - that was an excellent Hubba Bubba Commercial from 1979 starring Dub Taylor. Yes, I thought that too plus it came out in 1984 :shock:

Here's this one of Bubble Tape, gosh I loved this, I used get that one all the time :)

That one I remember.

Good. I used to love Big League Chew. Here's this one from 1997 :)

I don't really remember that commercial but it's definitely the ones with the catchy jingles that you remember most.

Yes, it sure is. I remember Freedent but I don't that Commercial with that school teacher but it was a good. Here's a variant of the Big league Chew you posted earlier ;)

I honestly don't recall ever seeing this full version of this classic Tootsie Pop commercial. I just remember an abbreviated version with just Mr Owl.

Wow, I never saw that updated version before. Definitely the 90s there.

It sure was. How about that from Wrigley, "double your pleasure, double your fun" :) Here's this Coke from the 1940s :shock:
