Recalled from an Israeli(?) children's puzzle book:

8 8 8 88 88 88 888 888 888 8888 8888 8888 88888 88888 88888 888888 888888 888888 8888888 8888888 8888888 88888888 88888888 88888888 888888888 888888888 888888888 8888888888 8888888888 8888888888 88888888888 88888888888 88888888888 888888888888 888+88+8+8+8 888888888888 88888888888 88888888888 88888888888 8888888888 8888888888 8888888888 888888888 888888888 888888888 88888888 88888888 88888888 8888888 8888888 8888888 888888 888888 888888 88888 88888 88888 8888 8888 8888 888 888 888 88 88 88 8 8 8

{[(8+8)x8]-[(8+8)/8]} x 8 - 8 = 1000

so 8+8 = 16
multiply that by 8 and you get 128
(8+8)/8 = 2
128-2 = 126
126 x 8 = 1008
1008 - 8 = 1000
