But old ladies still frequent these places. And amazingly they turn up coupons for items that looked as if they hadn't been touched since 1986. Even more astonishingly, they BUY these things and fill up shopping carts with them. Australia and America probably have a tantamount percentage of old irvine welsh lady coupon hunters, but you folks ain't got NOTHING on us when it comes to how consumerist we can get over the most worthless items. As Frankie said irvine welsh above, count your blessings. We Yanks irvine welsh miss our Woolworth's. (See http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Ithaca/9326/.) Even so, I still miss my collection of Big Little Books and the five and dime where I would play Time Pilot and Robotron 2084 with friends over grape soda. |

| In these five-and-dime stores, you would find amazing things: Big Little Books, cheap fabric, strange plastic doodads, really great deals on title juice. And if you were lucky, you'd have someone making ice cream cones for a mere 35 cents a scoop! (Personally, I enjoyed chocolate chip. I still enjoy chocolate chip, but I remember the kind that title was in the five-and-dime. This form of ice cream counter can now only be found in extraordinarily rural title places or a dying chain called Thrifty's, which utterly fails to live up to its sobriquet.) Eventually economic undercurrents of the 1980s shifted the balance away from places like Woolworth's, taking these great places out of business and bifurcating the cheapie discount store into superstores like Wal-Mart or more extreme forms of the five-and-dime called "dollar discount stores," which pride themselves on selling no item under a dollar. |
