[@jasetraber]

Love that Murphys Oil Soap commercial!

[@m3trooper]

Your videos always bring me a combination of JOY and SADNESS!! Miss the 80's tremendously!

When I watch these and listen to them I can just imagine being a small child. Thank you for sharing. This set is 2 months before my 3rd birthday. :)

The actress in the Hartz flea collar commercial is Tina Sloan. She was on the soap Guiding Light for decades.

Thank you so much for showing some local (for me) commericals. I had just turned 4 when these originally aired, and remember most of them very well. The News Promo with the "micro machines guy" (hey that's what I best remember him for) for 30 news is for WVIT out of Hartford CT "an hours news in 1/2 the time" was their slogan at that time. and holy crap! Finast! I still remember the one in my hometown, which is now Tri-Town foods (IGA owned 3 store chain). what a tip down memory lane.

[@CapricornSuave]

That Frisbee commercial was the sexiest toy commercial I've ever seen.

[@usa02]

We used to have Finast stores here in Northeast Ohio. Before then, it was known as Pick-N-Pay, then Finast and later Tops. All the Tops stores in Ohio closed down or were converted to Giant Eagle and Heinen's.

Dear 80's Commercial Vault: I have been perusing your vids for about a week or so. I gotta say this. They absolutely take me back to that era. It's like a time warp. Lock stock and barrel. (Especially after a beer or 3) Keep up the freaking awesome work!

I'm liking the WNEW and WSBK clips! Hartz advertised all the time here on TV in the 80s. I thought Lawnmower Man on that Lawn Boy ad too! Those announcer voice overs like the one at 2:09 used to be LOUD and scary to younger folk in the 80s -- including myself! If Bruce Jenner didn't get involved with a Kardashian, he would have faded into 80s obscurity forever. It was easy for me to think of MST3K's "Crow" to sing that Taster's Choice ad in one of their bad films!

@gctechs Use of radium based paint was phased out years before these aired.

[@herrgolf]

I'm glad kitties were just as cute 30 years ago!

[@Jukesette]

I remember Fayva shoe store and the Tropicana commercial... OMG, I remember the cartoon mascot on the carton. So many memories. XD

[@80sCommercialVault]

@TheBigclay03 It's R.D. Robb (aka Schwartz) from "A Christmas Story".

[@FredMcKennon]

I may be wrong, but that kid in the Murphy's Oil commercial may be R.D. Robb (Schwartz) from "A Christmas Story"

[@gigi4ey]

@FreddiePipes You are right...it is him!

[@beach54000]

Freesbee you just can't do it alone ! LMAO

[@TheBigclay03]

is it me or do the little boy in the Murphy's Oil commercial looks like one of the nerds on the Big Bang Theory

[@blugreen123]

VEE-acom? that's some head of hair on Bruce Jenner the image on the Tropicana oj container is bizarre Murphy's Oil Soap has the best jingle EVER! yes, I'm sure the "soft flavor" Taster's Choice coffee settles all marital disputes 8:07, so the boys are only paying attention because of the sandles, and NOT the short shorts? a comercial for Frisbee? "Okay, honey, give it to me again!"

[@rickdeckard1075]

"Duxbury, Maaaaahhhhhh...."

[@bigmankralc]

*watches return of the jedi spot* JOY!!!!!

[@CBRSEntertainment]

oh wow that return of the jedi commercial was epic!!!!!!!!

[@pika23]

Monty from Say Yes to the Dress Atlanta looks like Bruce Jenner! It's that girly hair cut!

[@pika23]

Yeah lawn mower man!!! Yknow Stephen King lives in New England...maybe this commercial inspired him!

[@tag4650]

What was that at 6:55?

[@80sCommercialVault]

"Mazda Sports Look", a sports interview show that aired on ESPN: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Up_Close

[@tag4650]

Well then

[@tag4650]

I have to say, Mazda Sports Look has a very light-blue vibe to it

[@holbrooke7]

You know what's funny? Bruce Jenner was hawking Tropicana about a year ago, too! (With the rest of the Kardashian clan this time, though. Boo.)
