I'm Canadian and I don't believe they were used up there! That is very strange! Will have to look at all the posts... :?:
Kitsie - I just asked dh, who grew up just outside of Niagara Falls, ON & he says he remembers collecting stamps, but he's not sure what kind. He thinks they could have been S&H, but he is really not sure.....
OK - to go along with this S & H stamp post - anyone remember the name of the grocery store you got them at???
and is the store still in business????
I remember "Acme" grocery store (in North Tonawanda,NY) for the green stamps. I think we got Plaid Stamps @ The Great Atlantic & Pacific Co (which then morphed into the A & P). Neither store is in operation today.
My first came from Piggly Wiggly. It's been gone a long time. Next was Minyard's in Dallas. I'm pretty sure it's still there. Also got a lot of them from a Shell gas station in Mesquite, TX and a Sinclair gas station in Dallas.
