Sing your favorite commercial jingle!
Doesn't matter what era it comes from - just let 'er rip!

This is the one I was singin' in the shower this morning -

I am stuck on Band-Aid, cause Band-Aid's stuck on me
I am stuck on Band-Aid brand, cause Band-Aid's stuck on me
They hold on tight in the bathtub, and they cling in soapy suuuuuuuds!
I am stuck on Band-Aids, cause Band-Aids stuck on me!

What's yours?

1. Two all-beef patties
special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun!

Remember the speed contest Mickey D's was running in the mid-'70's? IF you said that phrase really fast, you got some prize. I remember getting a coupon for some free food for that. I think I was about 8 or 9...

2. Yep. I do.
Alas, in the early to mid 70's, my hometown had no McFranchise.... Our McVisits were relatively few....

3. I preferred Burger Chef myself...
...but McFood worked in a McPinch. Scouring my memory, I believe the event was held at Rogers Chevrolet in Rantoul, IL. :-)

6. I used to work at Burger Chef in the late 70's
- and not as either Burger Chef OR Jeff. Usually on the grill. NOt exactly the high point in my vocational history, but it paid me a whopping $2.65/hr! That was righteous money in 1979 dollars.

8. Somewhere I've got some of the Burger Chef toys.
I remember the glow-in-the-dark frisbee for one. Burger Chef had THE BEST kids meals - the Happy Meals of their time.

11. McDonald's Is Your Kind Of Place
Hamburgers in your face.
French fries up your nose.
Ketchup between your toes.
And don't forget those great big shakes.
Made from polluted lakes.
McDonalds is your kind of place.


==========================

Sadly, I can't recall the ACTUAL words of the song. But the new lyrics me made up as kids will stick with me forever.

17. I believe you are correct, so...
"You deserve a break today
So get up and get away
To McDonalds."

I've heard all of these - we've been to at least a dozen Manilow concerts. It's funny, there are teenagers at every show, and they all know these jingles.

24. You probably need to be from the midwest to remember this one...
Two, two, two, two little bills with time to kill
just a wonderin' what to do.
Along came a case with a big green face
and the case say "Ten for Two!"

Ten, ten, ten, ten for two
gonna boogie on through
gonna make you green when you're feelin' blue.

Let Merchants Bank lay the numbers on you
TEn-ten-ten for two...

This was way bak when banking was still regulated - they were advertising all of their services that were available when you had a checking acount with them - for only two dollars a month! The commercial had that Peter Max style graphics, and sorta resembled the "Keep on Truckin'" caricature/cartoon that was popular back in the early/mid seventies...

Sorry - shameless kick...:kick:

25. I got one from SoCal...
It's Cal Worthington and his dog Spot! (usually a tiger, or elephant)

If you want a car or truck, go see Cal.
If you want to save a buck, go see Cal.
If you need to save a buck, and if you need a car or truck...
Go see Cal, go see Cal, Go see Cal.

28. Soaky soaks you clean
Soaky soaks you clean,
in oceans full of fun,
scrubbley-dubbley, dibbley-dobbley,
clean before you're done!
Soaky soaks you clean,
and every girl and boy,
has a toy when it's empty,
when it's empty,
it's a toy!!!
