name games or anything that you grew up with

[thriftyEvie]

sometimes we get so down, because we are in our forties,so for fun and past memories I thought we could list games or toys or even old past tv shows, that would make others laugh.
okay,I'll start remember playing etch a sketch?

The dating game (it was my sister's) but my friends and I would go in and play it. It would make her so mad...hahahaaaha!! It had a door that you had to open up--great fun!

Loved watching Gilligans Island.

I could not work out how they could make so much stuff from coconuts but could not fix a hole in their boat.

I used to love the old soda commercials:

"I'd like to buy the world a Coke. . ."

"I drink Dr. Pepper and I'm proud. I'm part of an original crowd."

I'm a pepper, you're a pepper, he's a pepper, she's a pepper. Wouldn't you like to be a pepper, too?

Hold the pickles, hold the lettuce, special orders don't upset us, all we ask is that you let us serve it your way. Have it your way. Have it your way at Burger King.
