    What a sad day when they were gone and I always loved getting my stuff there because of the way they treated their customers and their Employees.; There was a Big Ames in Boyertown and it was a beautiful store.

    2:04 Ames had a snack bar? I could see what looks like a popcorn machine on the shelf behind the employee. That same employee that was handing the customer a hotdog. I heard some Zayre stores had snack bars and when they became Ames they still used the snack bar but that was only in a very few locations

    Yes some Ames stores had a snack bar too. I remember when I was a kid sometimes one of the Ames stores that we went to in my area had a snack bar, and my mom would by me a soft pretzel,Icees, and nachos with spicy cheese dip. Those were the days!
