Remember those old commercial Jingles?

Post by Can't Never Tried »

Do you people remember any of those old Jingles that businesses used to put out?

A few I remember my Dad would always humm or sing them,

TCF had the "Tuck a buck a day away"

Embers had that "every meals a winner- 7 days a week 24 hrs a day remember the embers"

How about Red Owl stores (remember those PB) I know they had jingles too but I can't remember them.
Arthur Treachers Fish and chips ??

Back in the day the best creative jingles on the radio would stick with ya!

Lets hear some of your old favorites !
ought a be good for a laugh or 2

:lol:

I'm a bit *cough cough* YOUNGER than some of you, but the Hamm's beer jingle during the AWA wrestling on Saturday mornings was always my favorite. Can't ever beat that one.


I used to love Ken Patera and Mr. Saito.

Do you mean "In the land of sky blue waters" ?? I can't recall the rest of it although I had a really cool sign that was from the 50's or 60's that Mom just couldn't stand in the attic anymore and tossed it. :x

I do remember Red Owl stores and Applebaums too.

Winston taste good like a cigarrete should.

There were a lot of tobacco ones that got the nation hooked on nicotine.

But who could forget: Electricity is penny cheap from NSP to you

When my dad would yell at us to turn out the lights when we left a room , we would sing that jingle to him.

His response was always"Fine you pay for it with your paper route money then" We turned out the lights .

Was the cool sign the one with waterfall that was running over.

Local bar had one in Warroad. Great sign.

It went something like this. When CNT talks people listen. :wink:

Ever since AY has labeled you the "bored"expert on finances Ive been trying to remember but no luck. :lol:

Want a jingle to get stuck in your head? Remember the commercial for Nair?

"Who wears short shorts...
we wear short shorts..."

If it does get stuck in your head, you're welcome. :lol:

The Hamm's commercial was the best, btw.

I have to confess...

I own a DVD of drive-in intermission movies, and another one (actually, it's a 3 disc set) of "classic commercials" from the 50's and 60's. I find that stuff fascinating.
