Ha! Knowing zero about Rainier beer and their ads, I loved this promo - so fun to see this nostalgic trip and I loved that the films were all kept and waiting for someone to bring them back to life. Congrats on your upcoming move (and good luck with the purging and packing- whew, I know it’s quite a job - hoping most (all?) of your Friday things will find a place in your new digs.)

Ah, I’m glad the fun translated to someone outside the original Rainier scope; I really hoped it would. ◡̈ I am immensely grateful that we get movers who will also pack so my job is simply the purging, though I’m simultaneously collecting things that will better fit a new style so…🫠 I’ll surely write about it all soonish.

I'm glad you had a chance to go to the Rainier Beer movie. We went, too! I remember some of the commercials, but I also enjoyed the history of and inspiration for the whacky advertising.

If you need help purging....let me know. I read LOTS of articles about how to declutter and purge and yet I'm not very successful in my home. I'm happy to hone my skills with your stuff. :-)

Appreciate the offer and would love to help you practice 😅 I’ll let you know if I hit a roadblock - mostly trying to get Buy Nothing folks to take stuff before resorting to thrift store donation…
