This is when holidays felt magical! And it was a fun special good times! Holidays don’t feel like this anymore! It’s all online shopping.. no malls,no holiday specials. No magical feel to McDonald’s. No big department stores, I’m glad I grew up in the 80s as a kid ❤️

This is absolutely fantastic! And not a stupid drug commercial in the whole bunch

Holidays weren't holidays without the spinning CBS special presentation bumper.

When I see these commercials I remember how the holiday spirit used to feel like. I lost that feeling by the early 90s. Something happened to the world that stripped that feeling from me, and reading some of the comments I see I'm not the only one!

Kmart was awesome when I was a kid. I would ride the merry go round and shop in the makeup and toy section. The cafeteria was nice also. Those were the good old days.

Please someone figure out time travel so I can go back to this decade and relive it all over again.

I miss being a child in the 80's

Simpler times. I wish we could all go back.. The 80s were the best!

That CBS Special intro instantly turns me into a child again!😂😂😂

I miss the 80'S😥

These all remind me of cool fall days and evenings with my family. Either at home watching TV or outside or playing games. I wish those people were all still here now.

All the sales are called "Thanksgiving Sales" not "Black Friday," and they start at 8 the morning after Thanksgiving and not at 3am or midnight -- or even worse -- the afternoon or evening of Thanksgiving Day! One of the sales is touted as an event "for early Christmas shoppers." These days if you dare wait til Thanksgiving weekend you'll be a 'last-minute' shopper! 😜

These kind of videos at this time of year are such a much needed escape from today's unrecognizable times.

I miss these commercials I used to watch them as a kid while my mom was cooking. Even though she's not here her memories are still here. Thank you for these videos!! Back in the day there use to be more thanksgiving commercials and not Christmas. Nowadays it's literally xmas in September everywhere. How times have changed.

It’s so comforting to watch these commercials now with everything going on in the world! I was a kid when these commercials aired. I wish life was as simple as it seemed (was) back then.

Who's watching this in 2019? Now, Thanksgiving is overlooked. It goes 🎃 straight to 🎄.

I picture my granny watching these. She had like 3 or 4 channels. Never knew of computers or cell phones. She was a very content lady. I miss it all. Rip

okay so anybody here ready to join me in a time machine that will take us back to the late 70's so we can enjoy the holidays again during this time era

I want to go back so bad....

Back when TV was worth watching.....and free.

I love watching these commercials....where did the time go....I wish we could turn back time....❤️

I AGREE THINGS BACK THEN WERE FUN AND EXCITING I MISS THE 80'S

Oh the spinning CBS Special presentation always got me going during the holidays. It meant a great show was coming. Charlie Brown, Rudolph, Santa Claus is Coming to Town, and Frosty the⛄Snowman!☃️ Those days are such wonderful memories for me.

GOING BACK IN TIME TO RELIVE THE 1980'S IS PRICELESS.

I miss Kmart 💔

I love commercials lol. Like the holiday commercials and like paid programming where they show cookware and stuff 😂

I wish childhood back then were like that today.

The 80's was the best of all

Everyone is so clean looking.

Awesome adverts, but man, this is a sad thing: both Sears & K-Mart are gone now!

I was born on Thanksgiving day in 1985, so this is extra special to me. 🦃 lol

Bings back some fantastic memories watching these old commercials and I can't get over the prices on the turnkeys LOL. Wishing everyone on here a Happy Thanksgiving

The 80's and 90's parades are priceless.

🤠 I don't care what anybody says here, Christmas throughout the 80s was like the greatest times ever, Christmas through 1990s weren't that bad but the 80s were so much better and look at everything we had back in the 80s to as a young kid growing up back then.

I miss those days. As a kid we had so much fun, good show's on television ❤❤❤

Can we go back to this, I miss the 80’s😩

What a fun nostalgia kick. I like to think when our time comes we can relive those special moments.

I remember the Garfield & Woody Woodpecker balloons for the Macy’s thanksgiving parade, they don’t make big balloons like them no more.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! :)

Safeway was closed on Thanksgiving.....back before greedy stores!

I had the Gus ornament! I think I still have it.

Definitely 1987. Sigh I was in jr high school. Great times.. God take me back to 1978 and let me enjoy the last bit of disco, and the Star Wars craze again. And then let me begin the awesome 80s. And all the great stuff that was to come. Music, cartoons, toys, styles, MTV, movies, etc. I'd give almost anything to go back.

Thank you for the memories LOL

That Atari Flight Simulator certainly is amazing!!

Haahaa! You showed 'em, Atari.

I just had a thought about the commercials and sound quality. I'd imagine these are from people recording movies and tv they wanted to re-watch. When you watch, you would fast-forward, degrading the vhs in the commercials. Now we want the old commercials for nostalgia. 😂

These feel close to home

I bought a lot of hi-fi equipment from Holdren’s in Roanoke and Radford, VA in the 80s.

Being here makes me feel so good because I grew up in the 70’s and 80’s and it absolutely was a better time before all of this technology that has basically destroyed society because it hasn’t been controlled and used properly. Back then we literally did not lock our doors, families ate together and we talked to each other. It was the very basic things in fact in the 70s nothing was allowed to be open on Sundays so I remember my parents and grandparents saying hurry up and get your gas on Saturday night because you can’t get it on Sunday, it forced us to be together and go to church. We had great TV back then with great shows. The holidays were so much different and people truly were nice with more patience because we had to wait for everything even popcorn today everything’s instant and if you don’t get it in a matter of a second people get upset and love their patience.

Such a better parade then, parade now days is horrible, wish I could relive those simple days!

The best times.

Man! Hearing the words "Children's Palace"....my brain dropped everything it was doing, and went on vacation to 40 years ago, just strollin' through the aisles, looking at the Star Wars and G.I. Joe figures, the Madballs, the Battle Beasts, the Hot Wheels....

Don't remember ever seeing Thanksgiving adverts. Very interesting.

I miss the 80's Elon Needs to build a time machine I would stay there !

I remember the holidays back then lots of programs on tv, barely any online shopping, lotts of stores

What the hell happened to our country.

Happy Thanksgiving!

hi tech in the 80s i think i bought a vcr for just under $400 and how about the camcorders might as well had a keg of beer on ur shoulder

thanks for posting

Great stuff. Thanks.

I might still have the jaq and gus ornaments that I got from McDonalds in their little cartons. I have so many ornaments!

Omg i basically remember all the commercial here the good old days lol

I was born in the 90’s but I find the 80’s so fascinating! What were they like? Does anyone know what year this is? I’m gonna guess 1987 judging by the parade

Children's Palace was in the '70's like Toys R Us was in the '90's. I loved Children's Palace. 🎄

LOVE EM' ! GRACIAS 👍👍👌👋🙏😉

I was a kid growing up in the 80s

No SMRT devices and nary a mention of "Black Friday" what crazy time period is this!

Great Video! A bit late but I just saw it. I subbed and will keep watching! Awesome content!

Wish I saw these ads on tv too.

Im a 90s kid but I remember k mart oh my goodness talk about childhood

THANK YOU LORD FOR LETTING ME BE BORN IN 1972 I WOULD NOT WANNA BE BORN IN THIS GENERATION IF YOU PAID ME 😡 EVEN TV COMMERCIALS WERE EVERYTHING GROWING UP ❤️

@2:59 Flight Sim!!

My God with inflation, those appliances are some of the most expensive I've ever heard of. That microwave is almost $400 dollars...

my exwife still has that macy's snoopy stuffed animal. well, she did when we were married. been about 8 years since i have been in her house.

At 20:33 you can hear an excerpt from George Winston's Winter Into Spring.

Pretty sure Kmart is to blame for the ridiculously early Black Friday shopping, which now has turned into opening ON Thanksgiving day -_- Course they wouldn't be open that early if shoppers wouldn't shop. Profits over people!

😍🥰

Cool alsome

K-MART RED LIGHT SPECIAL, CLASSIC

I miss this a lot are you able to put all these commercials on apple tv

Hey look, no protesters during the parade, just people enjoying themselves without fear.

1980s black 1980s black 1980s black Friday's oh my gosh

I know we need to move forward but sometimes i think people need to be remined about the holidays and what they mean

All commercials

They don't make parades like they used to these days...

I didn't know "the wiz" was real.. I thought it was just a Seinfeld bit..

Wow microwaves are one thing taht has went down in pricing.

so many commercials

People are in such a hurry today. Its not the same. Mom has passed. They aren't even having the parade this year.

They all say Christmas not holidays ...

Today's television is just gross. I can't stand to have it on for longer than 5 seconds.

667th 👍🏽

Omg what happened to this turkey? I just saw a turkey and he was gold and was not moving.

Anyone know the year. I’m thinking 80s when I was in high school

Puhleeze don't mix xmas stuff with thanksgiving stuff

このサッカーボールは1966年から1998年のワールドカップで作られました🇺🇲😎♥️♥️♥️

A magical time its sad when everything now is woke and destroyed and removed the magic love seeing all the non woke commericals

WTF?!?! WHY is Alex Trebek handcuffed?!?! This doesn't look safe for work. @16:29

I WANT TO GO BACK TO MY BIRTH YEAR 1972 YOU CAN HAVE TODAYS COMMERCIALS TV MUSIC MOVIES AUTO TUNE SINGERS REALITY SHOWS HORRIBLE ENTERTAINMENT IN GENERAL BACK IN THE 70 80 90 AND EARLY 2000 LIFE AND ENTERTAINMENT WAS WORTH WILE WE HAD TALENT IN MUSIC MOVIES MUSICIANS ACTRESSES AND ACTORS AND TV AND EVEN COMMERCIALS TODAY NOT SO MUCH

Compare the morning shows' content from the 80s to NOW. 80s content is mostly positive, NOW, mostly negative or controversy. Take 100 random 80s songs and the theme is mostly positive. NOW, take 100 random songs and the themes are overtly sexual, negative, obsecene (and I'm not even a Holier than though).
