F.W. WOOLWORTH

A blast from the past for sure. Don't long for the good old days and those prices too quickly though because the average yearly income in 1957 was $3641.72 and in 2009 it was $41,334.97 so I think it is all relative.

  1. I remember going into a Woolworth's New Brunswick when we were living in Maine... what a difference. I loved our Woolworth's but the Canadian version was a cut above. So interesting!
    Have a great weekend.
