Ed Hooper Hey, hope you good folks can help me out. If there was one Xmas commercial that I can say was my all time (hands down) favorite it was the one about the "Gifts" where Mary and Joseph were heading towards Bethlemhem(sp). The announcer went on to say before the lights and the gifts "...there is a little child who gave us... the greatest gift of all...himself." I still tear up everytime I see think about it. Try as I might, I have searched You Tube and other places to get a script or a copy of the original commercial. Am I crazy or does anyone here know what I'm talking about? It was a Hills commercial and Ilived in Dayton, Ohio when I first saw it.
Donna Assi This was my get away from my family!! I use to walk to hills after school and just walk around or go to the video game place and play!! oh i miss you sooo!!
Mike Ulakovich Hills is where the toys are!...Well use to be.
Roberta Zwiebel I worked to Hills for about 13 years. My husband & I were both in Retail. He worked for another company and we would transfer together. I worked at the Morgantown Hills, Indiana Pa Hills & Bridgeport Hills. I miss that atmosphere. Way better than anyplace to shop now around here.
John Ervin Jr Every time we would walk in my mom went straight to the snack bar and bought a big bag of popcorn and frozen cokes for me and my brother....now that I'm a dad, I understand her ulterior motive (it kept us quiet). Hills was genius for having that snack bar right in your face as you walked in.
Cheryl Plummer I miss Hills too. alot of fond memories going there in the 80s with my mom and dad. that smelll of popcorn and the variety of stuff in the store. stores like walmart have no personality
Staci Holland I really do miss Hills. My mom, uncle and aunt worked there in the 80's. We lived near one and it was a big part of my childhood. The smell was amazing when you walked into the doors! Like popcorn, pretzels and leather hahahahaha:)
Michele I loved Hills! I won an L.A. Gear bag there one time for some contest I can't remember. I loved their soft pretzels! And their display of warm cashews and nuts when you walked in the door... Ahh... the good old days. And, if I'm really honest? My kitchen farmhouse table that I still have... is from Hills!! ;o)
