LaVerdiere's

Now THIS is old school spooky, Maine! Happy Halloween! Since the big day just happens to fall on a "Throwback Thursday' we dug up a couple of classics, from way back before the days of Sprit Halloween. Any old school Mainer remembers LaVerdiere's Super Drug Stores...

These five Maine commercials from the '80s and '90s will bring back some memories.

From national chains to local department stores, take a trip down memory lane with these stores you used to shop at that your kids have probably never heard of.

Let's go back to Christmas time in Maine circa 1990. To demonstrate the incredible selection of items to choose from for everybody on your list, the announcer had to talk wicked fast in this classic commercial for LaVerdiere's. This TV ad was 30 seconds log, so ya gotta go high-speed in order to get it all in.

These old commercials are the style we need bring back. More local actors doing skits please!

Growing up in Augusta, the Halloween headquarters was always LaVerdiere's on Water Street. It's so cool to flashback to those October days of popping in to see all the scary new masks, decorations and shelves loaded with candy. If you ever need a LaVerdiere's fix...
