I love these old ads, I remember some of them. They remind me of a time long gone. The time of when I was a kid and a teenager and living with my parents. I miss those days.

[@marygarza1596]

Yes !! I fall asleep just listening to these commercials We all miss those days ❤ It puts us right there !❤ Greetings from South Texas !

4th of July of 74 I made my first trip to Disneyland and Knott’s Berry Farm with my family. I was four years old & my brother was 2. My aunt & uncle lived in La Mirada, CA at the time (just up the road from Biola University where I would attend 20-some years later). I would have seen all these ads on LA TV.

I love watching these ads again and remembering the way it used to be. In 1974 and 1975 I was going to the smallest school in the California school system, Allegheny. I wish I could go back there. Love from Marysville California

I think the H & R Block ads eventually got up to 25 reasons by the time the ad campaign ended.

The ‘reason’ this time around seemed particularly weak.

Or by the time he was indicted.
