How about SkyMall catalogs instead? They're already on the planes ;)
- ck2 15y agoSkymall is just gadgets, no? Sears catalog was full of every day practical stuff from clothing to household needs, tools, etc. The US government should have bought millions of leftover catalogs as propaganda to drop on countries like this. No bombs needed. Sadly it seems they stopped making it in 1993 (strangely well before internet shopping got started) http://www.searsarchives.com/catalogs/index.htm http://www.searsarchives.com/catalogs/index.htm http://images.google.com/search?q=sears+catalog&tbm=isch http://images.google.com/search?q=sears+catalog&tbm=isch
- blhack 15y agoIt went on much later than 1993. Christmas time always meant going through the sears catalog and circling things that I wanted. I remember being annoyed at all of the clothes I had to skip past to get the toys. This continued well past 2000. Here: http://www.sears.com/shc/s/nb_10153_12605_NB_Catalogs?adCell=BH http://www.sears.com/shc/s/nb_10153_12605_NB_Catalogs?adCell... It looks like they separated it into a few distinct catalogs, which is kindof sad.
