Who doesn't remember this catchy jingle that had every Buffalonian talkin' proud. We love this campaign and the crazy way the people in this video walk so much, this is one that should make a comeback.

While we mostly shop at Tops, Wegmans, Aldi and Walmart these days, Bells was the place to go in the 1980s. The last Bells in Western New York closed in 1993.

This 1981 commercial for Fay's Drugstore touts their new computer technology in the pharmacy. We still miss seeing those bold yellow bags. The last Fay's Drugs closed in Western New York in 1993.

Zon, had the first grocery store in Buffalo that carried Tropicana Orange Juice.
