This is the sequel to the restaurant franchise, but rather than just department stores...this includes electronic stores, hardware stores, auto stores, and grocery stores to name a few.

I hear about Pep Boys a lot in my area, but there's none in Cleveland! Luxury Department Stores like Nieman Marcus aren't even in Ohio! Meijer hasn't reached Cleveland yet.

This can also include stores that were once in your area, I knew that Cleveland once had Kroger and Tops.

And defunct stores like Woolworths and Just Closeouts...I miss those places!

In 1993 Meijer was planning to build a store in Broadview Heights.


Kroger's had a store in Eastlake, and there was a Topps store at the corner of Mayfield and SOM Center roads in Mayfield Heights.

I know Tops was around Cleveland until 2006 when the economy was about to collapse...Tops focused more on their other stores in Pennsylvania, New York, and Vermont.

I wish Finast would return!

I TOTALLY miss Woolworths!!! :(
Me too, loved their burgers. I kind of wish we had a Cici's Pizza.

I really miss Woolworths too! Plus Newbery's ( not sure of the spelling ). Also S & H green stamps store, those were great!

There is a record store about 20 miles from here..... I would love it if one opened in my town!!!!!!

A 7-Eleven! We don't have them in my area at all! I wanna try a slurpee. :(

Oh I know I LOVED Woolworth's lunch counter!!! ;) And the pet shop department. I loved seeing the birds, little turtles and fish!!!! :)

I remember Finast when I was living in mentor, and there was one on E. 185th St. in Cleveland near where my cousins live.

I'd actually wish Circuit City would come back. They always seemed to have electronics at reasonable prices.

Also, probably, in my area, I'd like to see Caldor's and Bradlees back.

I also miss Silverman's Department Store, there's only two locations now in Cleveland but there was more than that when I was growing up.

Staples.

Ryan, if you ever visit Vancouver, I will treat you to a Slurpee!

Canadian Slurpees are much better than the ones I tried in the States. Mind you the only Slurpees I have had in the States were from Las Vegas, and that was 10 years ago. I don't know what you do in the States, but the Slurpees were all foam, and I gagged on them. :(

I really miss Woolworths too! Plus Newbery's ( not sure of the spelling ). Also S & H green stamps store, those were great!
You're bringing back lots of memories!:D My Mom was big into collecting Blue Chip Stamps, Newberry's was another great store with a coffee shop inside.

Oh I know I LOVED Woolworth's lunch counter!!! ;)
.

Ill have a chicken salad sandwich and a slice of apple pie , please!

Maybe Woolworth's can come back as through making sandwiches available at your supermarket.

What killed Woolworth's is...Wal-Mart! I sooooo hate that store, Wal-mart! ohno:ohno:ohno:ohno:ohno:

And I'll take the egg salad sandwich. 30 cent sandwich sounds good to me!

Yes!!! That was a really good price! :) And a nice milkshake or piece of pie after would be so nice! ;) The comfort foods from the old days were the best !!! :)

TWO GUYS. I met the Brady Bunch there once when I was 11 years old.

Ill have a chicken salad sandwich, tulip sundae and cup of coffee. I wish Woolworths was back in society. We had one in a nearby city, but the time I was old enough to go on my own, the place closed up. The stores of yesterday seem to have everything that one needed. Not a huge variety like todays store, but you have enough. You could do your shopping, push your cart to the side and have lunch and possibly meet your neighbor.

Mariano's. I see that Grocery Market Store while i was visiting in Chicago back in 2015.

An individual Starbucks would be nice to have.

I want an Olive Garden close to me. The closest one is about 40 minutes away.

And I want my Kmart back!!

Me too!! Our Kmart closed down a few months ago! :( I wish by some miracle it would reopen ! Also I wish our Sears which closed down years ago would suddenly reopen again! ;)

But something more feasible would be if a Wal Mart would open near me!;) The Wal Marts here are kind of far from me, I can't get there too much!

A Woolworth's menu from 1970! This is the one I remember. I got the Burger and fries a lot!! :happyface


I wish I could enlarge this menu!!;)

I’m very fortunate that he one’s that’d be on my wish list are already here: Trader Joe’s, Michael’s, Bed Bath and Beyond= pretty much any great chain you’d want is here in NYC- or at worst about an hour away by subway to train.

Well my days of pigging out at McDonalds are long gone. As a mild diabetic McDonsld’s is like a skull and crossbones to me. Outside of coffee, the last real food I had in there was on Oct 27, 2011. But I gotta admit, sometimes I really jones for a McD fish sandwich, fries and a strawberry shake.

^1972...that was 10 years before I was born. My fondest memories of McD is playing on the playground and seeing all the McDonaldland characters which both sadly don’t exist anymore.

Nearby, I would love a Wal-Mart and a Chick-Fil-A. That's just for starters. :wave:

Chick-Fil-A is a great place...but some cities don't want them because of their moral issues...they don't know what they're missing!

Heard Chick-Fil-A’s food is terrific. When I’m ready to have a splurge day, I’m going to check them out.
