Just WHY can’t you get those any more? I even had much more exciting ones with fish and baskets and all sorts of amazing scenery inside.

These things are still being used in schools in South Africa...

I still have a couple of those...

still used this way in our country

Apparently, whatever your first choice was, it was never a mine. Never realised that. Just thought I was always lucky.

I could never fold my notes like some of my friends did

The front piece is removable to discourage thieves from breaking into the car to steal it. Classic!

Hell yeah still have mine!

Some ppl have mad skills on these things! It blows my mind. I could barely make anything recognizable! haha

Yes, and do you remember when you had to play Final Fantasy 8 on 5 separate CDs? (The 5th was the installation disc, PC version)

People used to make these out of tin cans.

This was also useful for old and almost broken cassette players to play mp3 files on.

Almost forgot about this.

Laser pointer with different tips to create different looks. High tech. 😉

I had one with a loaded spring in it so when you reached to get one and pull it out, metal snapped down onto the victims finger or thumb. It was actually quite painful.

That is a newer version. I got mine in the late 60's - it had black paper inserts with the patterns :)

Be kind, please rewind. Or we will charge you an extra dollar

They still have this at many summer camps and school playgrounds.

We had those too when I was a kid, but with pictures of the looney tunes on them! Flippo's!

ok, you are old!

No old at all

They are still readily available :)

OMG I absolutely loved my skydancer.

had one! :D but i don't remember what it all could do though...

I wasn't allowed to have any toy that was technology-including because apparently someone would hack into it and steal our personal info, and then show up to my school and steal me and my sister. My parents are not boomers, btw.

I'm this old. pong-5eb1e...75b870.jpg

Me and my brother had these. I had pink and he had blue

I had one. I was born in 2001 tho not exactly old😂

Had about ten of these. They didn't navigate stairs very well.

I had one of these

Did they leave little batteries on the carpet?

OMG i saw one in a thrift shop once I wanted it so muchhhh, my mom said I didn't need it :/

What are those..?

OMG, my kid had a green one and named it "Greenie" and absolutely loved it.

those were so hard to open for me!

I had to use these when I was in 1st-3rd grade and i´m 13. They may be old but their still in use today so...

Whoah. That school was clearly better funded than mine!

I just bought a bunch of these ice pops

I feel this picture in my ankle
