Fabrics are discontinued regularly, to make room for new lines...and keep us buying

The worst thing is fashion. It changes so fast. Specifically pants. I find a pair of pants that look and fit well and soon they are gone. I JUST HATE IT. My husband always asks me why I buy so many pants at once. That is the reason.

This came out in the mid 70's, it was called Jerry Rhedken complextion bar and it smelled so good you could eat it and it felt wonderful on your face. It had a rasberry scent,I'd give anything for that soap.
There used to be a dish soap put out by Purex I think the name was Trend. I loved the smell of that soap, it almost made doing the dishes enjoyable.

Oh yes. Somewhere there is a warehouse full of instamatic film. It irrates me when a product is pulled or discontinued. Yet there is a surplus which they can sell, but would hoard and let it rot. Stores also stop carrying items that sell well and then cannot give you a good reason why they are no longer carrying the item.
