Then again, you're both teenagers who've probably never went to Ames or Caldor or Bradlees or any other defunct retail stores.

Hey!! I'm 13 years old, soon to be 14 and I HAVE been to Ames many many times and I remember them very well. The only reason why I've never been to Caldor or Bradless is because there were none in my Area!!

Here's my previous idea for a new Ames logo.  A mix of the usual logo with a "new Sears logo" touch ;)

[Jag67]

Ok people..Let's all forget about this!! I don't want to see another topic turn to crap with all this bashing!! Just stop!!

PS- Zayre88 that's a sweet logo:roll:

People, you are all blowing this out of proportion.  I was not bashing.  I was just telling caldor99 how it is.  Also, I am sorry to both fontaine & jag.  Jag, I did not call you out.  I only called out that 76 guy & caldor99.  I'm sorry.  It's just that teenagers need to know how to post a proper message.

I once had this Ames toothbrush, but I can't find it anywhere. I bought it at Ames at sometime and used it until it got worn out and I remember I wanted to keep in because it said Ames on the handle, but I can't find it anywhere. It might be in my closet. I know its somewhere in my house.
