In Reply to: RE: I worked at one from 1988-90 as a sales guy... posted by Dman on January 15, 2015 at 06:23:52
Worked there part-time along with a couple of buddies stationed in North Chicago area because let's face it, no one's getting rich in the military....great time we had, throughout the day I'd throw a blank hi-fi video tape into one of the hifi VCRs (connected to the store demo direct dish) and by the end of the week I'd have Over 40 hrs of blues, jazz, techno,etc...boy; kinda miss those days:)

Did you eat at the Full Moon on 41 back then?
I was primarily at the Zion location inside the little strip mall, sometimes at the Waukegan store. Only food store I remember was the "Piggly Wiggly" directly across the street.
I remember a small discreet restaurant on 41(?) often frequented by M. Jordan after every home game (including his championship runs)...at least until he opened his own restaurant.

I hope you recorded on a hi-fi stereo VCR - at 'standard speed'. :)Piggly Wiggly. Ha! There was one in the town where I grew up. Also a Red Owl. What was it with naming grocery stores after animals? Kinda like Ford and their Mustang, Thunderbird, Cougar, and Pinto. Anyway, Piggly Wiggly is still around. No doubt asylum member Lee M shops there. I actually bought my wife a Piggly Wiggly t-shirt last year for Christmas. She loves it!

Hi
The Radio shack in Waukegan in what was the Belvidere mall is the one I used to go to. I had been in Zion a few times, to the beach etc but I lived a bit south of there.
Jordan used to live on rt22 / halfday rd about a block west of the restaurant, the restaurant was “The highland House” which was at the corner of rt22 and highway 41.
Full Moon is another restaurant which is closer to Waukegan on rt41 which is just outside the entrance to Great Lakes navy base and has taken the place of Highland House (now gone) for the Sunday motorcycle guys.
