so much going on
if nothing else
you might never need
to shop anywhere else
so many options
none really appeal to me
maybe because i’m in the
‘& everybody else’ category
maybe it’s something else.

“marketing is too important to be left to the marketing department.”
~ david packard
That must be a blast (offering) from the past. Or are you living so far off ‘normal’, 20th century living that NOWADAYS such panels are still ‘allowed’ to be shown? This looks like something we would have (just) possibly seen in the sleepy seatown in Southern England when we lived there in the ‘90/00’. A place we called Gods Waiting Room because everybody with no job or much time was there, sitting along the shore, tanning in the kind sunshine, their fish&chips or sandwich in hand, letting the days go by….. but it WAS idyllic 🙂

oh it’s real and it’s open, and only about 25 miles from me. as I drove by I was so surprised, I turned around and my grandson took the pic for me, both grandsons were as surprised as I was to come across it.

If it helps, Beth, I have been a man lost of my life and there is little offered on the sign that interests me either, so maybe it is not you being the “everybody else”. I absolutely love that quote and am looking forward to my opportunity to use it during one of our marketing meetings….😁

same here, nothing appeals to me on the sign either, except for perhaps the electronics.
I’m sure they have snacks for sale – I would have led with that…

Hmm…a cowboy rolling a smoke. He’s wearing a spur on his right foot. I wonder where the spur on his left boot ended up. He looks pretty relaxed for a guy with a spur where it is. Just sayin’…

Marketing is too important to be left to marketing. And silhouettes are to important to be left to privative artists. The things you will find at the consignment store these days.

The thing that caught my attention on that sign was “beer mirrors.” I’ve never seen an ad for that before. It reminded me of one of my buddies from our college days who collected those things. He took such pride in them, and in each room of his apartment, they were displayed prominently—to each their own.
