Suddenly it hit me that a lot of you aren’t old enough to remember the Certs Twins. Well, here’s a famous TV commercial featuring that duo–circa 1970 or a little earlier.
“Certs is a candy mint!” “Certs is a breath mint!” They argued about it for years, even though the voice-over guy kept telling them, “Stop! You’re both right.”
Notice the price: 10 cents. Certs are still floating around on the Internet today, but I couldn’t find a firm price. It ain’t a dime anymore, though.
Wow, how simple life used to be…a mint could be so exciting!
I remember them alright, was never a big fan, but occasionally would buy them. Another memory of a nicer time.
My wife & I remember them from the 1950’s. How about the Wrigley’s Doublemint Gum twins?
Oh, yeah, I remember the Doublemint Twins! “Double your pleasure, double your fun…” (Sounds a tad unwholesome, these days.)
