  • Here's another commercial for Zayre - this one with their "Take Another Look At Zayre" jingle.
    This aired on local Chicago TV on Saturday, April 7th 1979.
    About The Museum of Classic Chicago Television:
    The Museum of Classic Chicago Television's primary mission is the preservation and display of off-air, early home videotape recordings (70s and early 80s, primarily) recorded off of any and all Chicago TV channels; footage which would likely be lost if not sought out and preserved digitally. Even though (mostly) short clips are displayed here, we preserve the entire broadcasts in our archives - the complete programs with breaks (or however much is present on the tape), for historical purposes.

    Those were the better days of American department stores...before Walmart came along and ruined shopping as a fun experience.

      It was when Wal-Mart went corporate following the death of their founder Sam Walton, that all hell broke loose. Wal-Mart started seeing less and less American-made products and started seeing more imports on every aisle. Sam Walton must be rolling in his grave right now. Rollback prices my ass!

      Justin Hill Agreed. Walmart was much better when Sam himself was at the helm.

    We had a Zayre in Chattanooga Tn. My mom and I would shop there every Saturday. Good Memories. Our children today want be able to look back and have great memories like kids who grew up in the 70's and 80's.

    I was only 7 years old in 1979. I remember my parents taking me to the Zayre's in Brandon, Florida (near Tampa). I remember like it was yesterday. Such great memories.

    I think the girl who says,"Come on in and take a look!" at 0:24 is very pretty! I like the way she smiles at you,and waves her hand as she says that line-she has beautiful eyes,and a beautiful face and a beautiful smile.
