- james-skemp 3y agoIf we're thinking of the same thing, I have fond memories of those at mall department stores in the 80s and 90s. I think Sears around '04-06 (?) was the last time I saw one of those used. I think I bought a dehumidifier or air purifier. When they started rolling out credit and debit cards without the raised numbers I thought fondly of those and how they were definitely done for now.
- luxuryballs 3y agoOh yeah I didn’t even think about the raised numbers thing! Cash is still king.
