Lux soap. My mom thought Lux soap was so refined. It was a major brand, but it withered away. There are other brands that were #1, but no longer exist. Pontiac. Panam, Borders

I haven't heard of half of those, obviously American brands.. but yes FW woolworth, much missed by everyone... ToysR us .. there's a new similar place here ..Blockbusters.. well I never liked that anyway.. PanAm was such an iconic airline that even here in the UK when I was a teen at school it was fashionable to have our school bags with the PanAm logo...
I personally miss.. Dolcis & Saxone ..( quality fashion shoe shops)...
MFI... which was a fore-runner of Ikea basically.. affordable furniture which often had to be put together yourself..
Texas ..a big chain of D-I-Y, and hardware stores..
there's so much I miss...
Good quality orange juice without any additives that the milkman used to deliver with the milk...
Carbonated drinks deliveries .. ( Soda pop) delivered to the doorstep like Milk...
Door to door Grocery , Butchers, & Bakers Vans...

Who saved their green stamps? S&H were big in the US, but Green Shield had the UK market.
I'm told that saver books have become collectors items in their own right. People will collect anything.
