Iconic horse@ meijer Thrifty Acres

This is Sandy. she has been a fixture at a couple of the Meijer stores for a very long time.
She is an iconic mechanical horse, part of childhood memories for many West Michigan children. It only costs a penny to ride her and many moms with young children would make it a part of the experience when grocery shopping at the Fred Meijer Supermarkets.
"Sandy" first appeared in 1962 and is a part of
the story of Meijer Thrifty Acres.

I remember riding these horses. That was a long time ago!
Sandy looks good for her age!
