Here's a quick post of a few newspaper ads from 1973. They're ads from the Redford Township edition of
The Suburban News for the week of May 30, 1973 to be exact...
Kresge's was the discount store that spawned
Kmart. The Kresge's stores lasted well into the late 70's, and I'm pretty sure even into the 80's. The sale prices in the above ad are very good. I'm particularly impressed by the price for Puffs which inflation adjusted for 2012 is $1.19. I challenge you to find a box of Puffs for $1.19 anywhere.
Above is a very long ad for Sentry Drug. You can see there's two sizes of Selsun Blue on sale, but it doesn't seem like much of a sale to me. Adjusted for inflation that $2.69 on the 8oz size is $13.90 in 2012 dollars. Selsun Blue goes for about $7 today, and that's an 11oz size.
Get ready for Memorial Day with stylish fashions for men and boys at SIMS. I'm in awe of those "
Bold Cuffed Bells." I kinda wish I was bold enough to wear them today. In case you're wondering about the price on those pants - $10 in 1973, is $51.66 in 2012
