Remember when Secret deoderant was "strong enough for a man, but made for a woman?" Or how about Ace Hardware - it was "the place with the helpful hardware man".

You'd probably get sued these days for making such sexist commercials.

"Welcome back,
Your dreams were your ticket out.
Welcome back,
To that same old place that you laughed about.
Well the names have all changed since you hung around,
But those dreams have remained and they're turned around.
Who'd have thought they'd lead ya (Who'd have thought they'd lead ya)
Here where we need ya (Here where we need ya)
Yeah we tease him a lot cause we've got him on the spot,
welcome back, Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back.

How about the commercial about bringing home the bacon and fry it up in the pan. Cause I'm a woman

What the heck was the product??? I can't remember

"I can [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]bring home the bacon[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]Fry it up in a pan
And never let you forget you're a man
'Cuz I'm a woman -- W-O-M-A-N!"[/FONT]

Enjoli perfume

There we go. I kept thinking Mabbaline (I can't spell it) but I knew that wasn't right. I knew it was makeup or perfume or something girly. lol

Remember when you would open up the box of cereal and dig thru it for the free toy?

Leggings over stirrup stretch pants. Oh the fashion horror!

Leggings over stirrup stretch pants. Oh the fashion horror!

I rather liked my stirrup pants and big hair which took almost a can of hairspray a day to obtain.

How about the "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful" commercial. Gag.

Remember when L'Eggs panty hose came in a big plastic silver egg?

 

[Hiskid4ever]

Do you remember when pop came in a glass bottle?

(I used to play with the eggs those pantyhose came in)

Oh.... does anyone remember a song with something like "Muh-nuh-muh-nuh" as its lyrics? I don't know the title of it; I just remember it as a really weird tune.

 

[KnowBeDo]

The Muppets song?

Muh nuh muh nuh
do dooooo do do doo
muh nuh muh nuh
do doooo do doo

What about Fraggle Rock?

I actually saw a t-shirt at Walmart yesterday with Fraggle Rock on it and I WANT IT- WAH

HERE is a link to the Mahna Mahna song originally aired on the Muppet Show.
