Singer Systems at Target
Memories of these vacuums at Target are slowly coming back to me.
Target had the green trimmed Singer System upright. I also remember stacks of Singer upright attachment sets high up on the top shelves.
I got to thinking about the canister that was sold at Target. The body and powernozzle were the same as Fred's machine but the hose was a grey electric rubber/vinyl but the curved wand was grey plastic. The wands were metal. I always thought, why not make the whole wand system metal? I seem to recall a price of $149.00.
This was in the early 80's and i was just starting my nursing career and was making better money than my previous job (McDonalds,LOL)so $149.00 didn't sound like a lot of money to me. I wanted a canister but for some reason I never bought a Singer System. Wah!
Here's a story that makes me want to kick myself now. I was in a thrift store and there was a grey Singer System canister and PN. I didn't get it because it didn't have the correct Singer PN. It had a Hoover made PN badged Singer! So I didn't get the vacuum because I thought it was an imposter! Stooopid!!!
Jeff, Thanks for the scan of the Singer vacuums! I love Singer vacuums! Still can't find the elusive model C 10 though!
