I remember that...

After the initial $1.00, you were on the hook for 8 at normal price but you could get it down to 6 if you bought 2 at half price right away.

Then when you fulfill your obligation, you canceled and wait for the famous "Please Comeback Offer".

You know you're old if your mom rang a cow bell out the front door to gather all her kids for dinner.

Mom or dad called us from the front porch, in a pretty loud voice. This seemed normal back then, but I never hear it in our neighborhood today.

Because the kids are glued to a screen of one type or another.

^^^I have the modern version of those pedals, so I don't need to "remember" getting whacked in the shin years ago, I need to remember to be careful to not whack my shins with them every time I ride the bike with those pedals.

vreihen16 · 09-27-2021, 01:21 PM

...and I spent half an hour with a Torx driver taking the skin-ripping grip studs out of a brand new set of pedals last week, before they had a chance to tear my shins.....
