Gosh, awhile. Not sure on # of years? It was a good move to stick with that same logo though. It's costly to change your logo all the time.

I remember when the orginal Ames store #1 in Southbridge used paper bags. They had red lettering on them, and were very thin bags. I can't remeber if the Ames was in the circle or not.
As far as the signs went, they were red before they went to green, but some stores never changed them.

There was a general rule of thumb with the color of the logo in relation to the stores before the big cash register upgrade in '99.

Red logo'd stores had the IBM 3683 cash registers, which used red numbers.
Green or white logo'd stores used the IBM 4684s, which used green numbers.  Most of these were old Zayre stores or old Caldors.

Maybe, If you look at some former Ames pictures on this site one Ames's walls are covered with red A's connected by lines

I'll get a picture

I worked in such a store.  Never made enough money for a remodel but the lease was so incredibly cheap we stayed open until the end.  We had red shopping carts to go with it.
