if dad couldn't fix it with the tube from the grocery store kiosk.

I'm both bemused and curious what in the world that might mean.

    My best guess is that they are probably referring to a degaussing hoop. You used to be able to rent / borrow those to try to fix your TV if you kid played with magnets near it. I'd never describe it as a tube though.
