Not only do I remember So-Fro stores, I remember the thingy you measured fabric with because I worked in one part-time in the late 70's and early 80's. I probably ran thousands of yards of fabric through the "clock", but I got a great discount so it fed my habit as a garment sewer at the time. I made all my daughter's clothes back then and paid so little for fabric - $1.98 a yard was "expensive"! :-)
