2. John M. Smyth's Homemakers
3. Lincoln Carpet Co. (You know a business is old when they're still using the ancient telephone exchange number from the 50's in their advertising)

15. 3 Liter Coke (With Ray Parker Jr. singing "Thirstbuster". Let me tell ya somethin'... quenchin' makes me feel good! For people wondering why the "Ghostbusters" theme was being used to advertise Coke, Coca Cola owned Columbia Pictures at the time and used "Ghostbusters" and later "Ghostbusters II" to promote Coke products both inside and outside of the films. Even Hi-C Ecto Cooler was a Coke product. Also gotta love/hate the Cosby jumpscare at the end...truly spooky!)
