We here at Bored Panda love different nostalgic eras. And we cover a wide variety of decades: the '70s, the '80s, the '90s, and even the 2000s. It's nice to delve into the past sometimes, and not always for nostalgia reasons. The past is what forms us; after all, we exist in the context of all that came before us, right?

Today we're featuring the Facebook page "The 90's Guyz," a popular account that serves its fans nostalgic memories daily. Do you miss the candy-colored Mac computers and writing with a sharpie on a CD? Then this list is probably for you!

We also got in touch with Donna Moritz, visual content strategist and founder of Socially Sorted and Canva verified expert. We chatted with Donna about the power of nostalgia in creating visual content, some cool '90s commercials, and how even Boomers can love the '90s.

    I recently bought quite an expensive polaroid camera. It turns out that with a real camera, I take terrible pictures.

    Polaroid was never a 'real camera'. I mean, I get that you mean film but the lenses were always sub par compared to lenses in the major brands of 35mm film cameras and the polaroid film wasn't as good as what you could get in 35mm either. TLDR: Even back then, polaroid was a trade off of crappier photos in exchange for (near) instant gratification.

    That little roll of Kodak film cost about $9 USD back in 1995. That's the equivalent of about $18 USD today. You got 36 photos, max. Then you had to pay another $9-10 for the development of the prints, which again amounts to about $18 USD today. Can you imagine having to pay $36 just to **see** the last 36 photos taken on your phone??!!! People would riot. It's why as a 49 year old woman, I probably have about 50 photos of myself as a child. No more. Photos were too expensive!

    Or for the photo place to lose your film, so your photos never come back. My oldest two met their gr grandfather and photos were taken He died a few days later and I was offered a replacement film. Not the same.

    "Nostalgia is a hugely powerful marketing tool when it comes to consumer behavior," visual content strategist Donna Moritz tells us. "As a proud Gen-Xer, I can't begin to explain the number of times I have related to a product, brand, service or ad based on nostalgic memories or past experiences."

    ADVERTISEMENT

    "And as a marketer and visual content strategist, I see time and time again how impactful nostalgia can be." Donna names several reasons why it is so. First, nostalgic marketing creates an emotional connection. 

    "Any product or service that evokes nostalgic memories will connect to emotions of joy, comfort and even security, and this can enhance brand loyalty as we associate a brand or product with a feeling or memory from our past," Donna says. "Particularly if that memory was part of our childhood or marks a significant event."

    Secondly, we might be more likely to perceive a product as more valuable if it evokes a nostalgic response. "Especially if it reminds us of happier times and any memories of emotional satisfaction," Donna adds.

    She explains that the third reason why nostalgia marketing is so efficient is that we might see it as less risky. "Nostalgia can guide our decision making as we perceive less 'risk' in the familiarity of something we have experienced before," she says. "Tying nostalgic themes through your product and services can help your customers to be more comfortable choosing to buy."

    Pong, Atari, and Intellivision had to have the TV on either channel 3 or 4. Where we lived, 4 was CBS, so we used channel 3. The switch box was two split wires with metal tabs to screw onto the UHF and VHF antenna knobs.

    "Content creation lends itself so well to marketing with nostalgia, as we can reference trends, pop culture and entire generational themes in our content," Donna points out. She gives the trends of Y2K, kids biking around and having adventures in TV shows and movies, and even remakes of Gen Xers' favorite shows as examples.

    "It does wonders for user engagement as who doesn't want to talk about their favorite childhood cartoon, toy, movie or music obsession? As such, nostalgia is a powerful storytelling tool, making our content more memorable when we make it more relatable."

    (raises hand) Ackshally, I think I'm even older! When I was at school, computers weren't even punch cards! That's right, between 1956 and 1962, proper computers didn't exist for nearly everyone in Australia!

    However, nostalgia can also tap into more personal and individual memories. "Nostalgia lends itself to personalization in marketing when targeting certain demographics – by understanding the age, interests and types of content that will evoke strong feelings of nostalgia," Donna explains.

    We asked Donna which nostalgia marketing campaigns she liked the best in the past year. "One that gave me goosebumps was Canva's Holiday Story Ad," Donna shares. "It gives such a 'Toy Story-esque' nostalgic feeling from the movies of the '90s. And by the end of the ad, you're literally rooting for the character in the story to have the happy ending that ultimately comes."

    One year (1970s) I received a plushy dog with a radio inside as a gift. My friend came for a sleepover, and she grabbed it and hugged it, squealing about how cute it was. She accidentally turned the radio on and it yelled, "I will NOT be treated like a sex object!" Talk about 2 freaked out teenagers!

    Let me tell you the tale of the glass salad bowl in the form of..salad leafs. Every adult (35-40yrs) household had them when I was a kid.... and when I became an adult I realized they just turn up in random 35 years old households. Noone ever bought them. Last month we went to a thrift store and there it was... Since I have no parents/grandparents I was compelled to buy it...So now, at 37 I too have a salad formed glass salad bowl.

    Donna also mentions this gaming ad from Nintendo as a memorable '90s nostalgia campaign. "[It ]evokes memories of siblings and childhood and playing Nintendo in the '80s and '90s. And what's more '90s than a Wayne's World Uber Eats ad? Personally, as a teen video store employee, I loved the '90s nostalgia of Airbnb's chance to stay at the last remaining Blockbuster video store. Experiential marketing [and] nostalgia is a perfect duo."

    1971 a BK Whopper, fries, and a Coke was US $1.06. A typical part-time job paid $1.50 an hour. Gas was 29 cents a gallon. My car, a 1967 Pontiac Grand Prix, got about 11 mpg highway, 7 mpg city. Thought this was typical. I could go on but it's time for my nap. Again.

    I dunno. My mom flipped out when I got home from the store for her because I thought there was enough money left over to buy myself a chocolate bar. That was a scary day for me, realizing one chocolate bar could send us to the poor house. She often said NO! a lot and much of our outings were either free or very cheap, and she fed us porridge and soup a lot.

    My mom gave me $60 for shoes one time in 1990. I bought a $20 pair of Tiger Asics and two Stevie Ray Vaughn CD's. My mom was not pleased with my financial sensibilities.

    Adulting WAS way more affordable in the 90s. I was making the princely sum of $11/hr in 1993 (with nearly limitless OT for two weeks of every month...) in a not cheap area of the country. I was solidly middle class. We were kings, man. Kings.

    I was broke in the 80s, Mom did her best. I worked and I survived. At 13 I was scrubbing toilets for $3 an hour. No generalized bitching allowed unless you have a solution.

    Yep. I moved out at 15 and started working at a large national fast food joint. I think it was $5.15 an hour. They wanted age verification that I was 16 so I had to quit and walk the mile back home. Friends of my mother had taken me in.

    Housing prices are up? The world population went from 5 billion to 8 billion in 30 years. The housing crisis isn't about cost, it's about availability.

    Donna says that nostalgia marketing doesn't discriminate. People of all ages may enjoy these kinds of ads, even if they weren't born in that particular decade. "While Gen Xers and Millennials are particularly attracted to '90s nostalgia, it's not an exclusive club," she says.

    My best friend was a dyslexia specialist (retired now). People know about the 'famous' symptoms of dyslexia like switching letters / numbers. But many also had balance issues. There was a catch routine she did with clients that helped that a lot. You could probably do the exercises with something other than a koosh ball, but koosh balls are large, easy to see, easy to catch, don't hurt if you miss and they hit you. (It was gentle toss, not trying to throw it like a fastball). So that was one good use for them.

    "The '90s appeal to everyone from Baby Boomers to Gen Z," Donna points out. "We have access to so much content now that TV re-runs, movie remakes and social media bring access to all the best of the '90s – no matter your age or demographic." Donna says that people can pretty easily recreate the aesthetics of the '90s.

    We could buy these at my grade school in the '70s for a quarter. The problem I had was getting the right cheese to cracker ratio. I'd usually put very little on the first two crackers, because I was afraid of running out of cheese. So the last two crackers would be absolutely smothered.

    These were actually made for people who went to raves to give them something to bite down on instead of grinding their teeth as a result of all the narcotics they'd be on. It just kinda trickled down to kids in school because rave culture was pretty big in the 90s.

    I worked in the service dept of a car dealer and some of the mechanics were the biggest cry babies. So me and another lady came up with the idea of the official cry baby award and I bought a big pacifier somewhere and put a long ribbon on it. It was in my desk drawer and a couple of days later Tammie told me to go give it to Phillip. I went out in the shop, walked up behind him, called his name and when he turned around I hung it around his neck and told him what it was. The who shop cracked up and we had the permission of the Service Manager to do it.

    Remember PC THEMES FOR YOUR DESKTOP? You installed a The X-Files Theme or a DaVinci Theme, for instance and it changed the icons, fonts, the wallpaper, screen saver, log on (and log off) music, cursor, error message, the background color and some other stuff I forget to all be based on the theme you installed. I LOVED and dearly miss that feature of 90s pc culture!!!!!! Btw, anywhere I could find that for modern pcs?

    They sold out so fast that retailers just put the pallets right off the truck, unwrapped the overrating and put the pallets in ailes. Saved on time, employee costs and space.

    Why is this even in this list? These have been around so long there are drawings of them on cave walls. /J But for real - "The Chatter Telephone is a pull toy for toddlers 12 to 36 months of age. Introduced in 1961 by the Fisher-Price company as the "Talk Back Phone" for infants and children, which was updated to the name Chatter Telephone in 1962, is a roll along pull toy."

    They switched to corn syrup in the early 80's. Besides I bet you wouldn't be able to tell the difference in a blind taste test.

    I grew up in the 90's, and never heard of "Mr Pibb". 🤷

    Basically Coke's answer to Dr. Pepper. Actually came out in the 70's.

    I know what you mean. TRU was like going to the amusement park, but KB was like going to the 7-11. One big endorphin hit vs. a lot of little ones. If you don't get it, you don't get it.

    i have traumatic memories around that sticker. big white wire grid bins full of sega genesis games (empty boxes, get the game at the cash register) and one bin was 2 for $5 and one bin was $7.99 and people never put them back in the right bins after digging through. a woman punched me in the kidney because i wouldn't honor the price of the (cheaper) bin she found the box in as opposed to the sticker price on it. was great to watch my petite manager manhandle her out of the store and ban her though.

    I would still like to. But I'm 36, and it's frowned upon.

    They still stamp at ours with invisible ink or blue light ink to make sure the children leave with correct adult. Safety first!
