Roller rinks of the late 70's/early 80's were so fun!

[@monghuni798]

As a little kid in the late 60's - early-70's, we had a huge black&white console TV with a stereo and record player. I remember having to go to bed after watching The Walton's.

The only government officials I trust are Smokey the Bear and Woodsy the Owl

[@monghuni798]

Anyone remember dropping off film at a FotoMat?

[@TheSleepingonit]

Parents did

[@Jayne-bt5en]

And coming back after an hour 😁

[@mikemeengs5720]

We used to exaggerate bell bottom jeans with a triangle-shaped piece of fabric sewned in. We called them "elephant ears".

[@monghuni798]

Anyone remember the air bells at gas stations and there weren't any 24-hous stations?

[@TheSleepingonit]

No 24 hour gas stations where I live

[@monghuni798]

@@TheSleepingonit Wow!

[@Jayne-bt5en]

I actually worked at a gas station back when it was considered a job only for males.

Every week, after grocery shopping, we would put a sponge in a saucer of water, tear the sheets of green stamps to fit the pages of the saver books, press the stamps on the wet sponge and put them in the books. We got a lot of things with green stamps.

carbon copies, where the :CC: came from in email addys

As a teenager in the 80's, the movie Roller Skating pushed us into dancing on wheels. I remember Pack Man and Donkey Kong on these handheld games.

[@PatriciaAShelton-no6cq]

I saved green stamps. I got a lot of small kitchen appliances . A toaster,a hand mixer that i still use to this day. Electric can opener, and china. These items were expensive back in the day. Especially for young couples starting out. A smart move to keep customers coming back week after week. Women made sure to get their grocery list correct. No running back to tge store everyday to buy something. Average family only had one car.

[@jawitten4]

My daddy took me to the Green Stamp store in a small town over and I got a cassette storage case and a basketball goal in middle school - like 1981! I was so damn excited!

[@monghuni798]

Waaaay back, my mom collected S&H Green Stamps. I remember the close to violence (by adults!) in stores of when there were a few left on the shelves.

[@itravisoni]

Green Stamps were for the young parents in the 50s and 60s they weren't for us who grew up in the late 60s and 70s.

[@monghuni798]

In high school in 950's Miami, my mom's poodle skirts had ocean-themed designs.

[@Jayne-bt5en]

I loved my poodle skirts! I felt so grown up and glamorous wearing them ❤

[@Jayne-bt5en]

Beatles were on Tonight Show first... months before their Ed Sullivan Show appearance. Cigarette companies played a major role in the development of television ☺

[@perfumedelight66]

Maybe modern kids dont have nuclear duck and cover drills, but they do have intruder drills since people like to bring weapons into schools. I think today’s kids have it worse.

[@sweet93553]

Yes indeed, we had a huge wood framed floor model tv back then, and a huge floor model record player/ A track player that had speakers designs similar to a church organ. Flipped open on top like a casket. I was scared of the record player. I was around 6 or 7 years old. Those were the days.

[@darnellmitchell9357]

😂 my mother would collect Green stamps and all these books and they were pretty good

There are still some drive ins, knew of one at the junction of rtes 31 and 32 in eastern CT, using radio stations, but with a girlfriend, I didn't really watch the movie

[@Jayne-bt5en]

No one watched the movie 😂That's what indoor theaters are for 😅

[@Mic420m]

Brace for IMPACT 😂😂😢

[@TheSleepingonit]

I've made mix CDS

Pogo sticks became lemon squeeze thing in a sealed bucket with water, sugar and lemons. The stores were in many mall food courts. The employees were always thin and pretty girls: teenage or young college girls, wearing many colored striped tank tops, beanie caps, and short shorts. They would jump on this pogo stick squeezing thing where everyone could watch, and the men and boys liked watching! Big crowds of them, watching for all like an hour or til they finished making the lemonades. They sold hotdogs dipped in batter and fried, or corn dogs. The shop was called Hot Dogs on a Stick.

[@NormanLor]

ONE THING I NOTICE IS RESPECT, IN MY DAY I'D NEVER HAVE TALKED BACK TO MY PARENTS BUT TODAY.....WELL!!!

[@lrajic8281]

The carbon copy of the documents were in very thin paper called onion skin. They even had the company logo on them.

[@urhurd]

We also had a bakery truck similar to Ice cream truck. They sold donuts, bread, candy.

[@vickiebillingsley7842]

I remember channel 17 we use to watch the tubby and Lester show it was a kid game show me and my cousins was on it I cannot find it can you

[@KerliYN]

Stamps are still used in Japan at drugstores, supermarkets, bakeries, barber shops and stores.

[@lrajic8281]

The poodle skirt became known as circle skirt. They became circle dresses, or moved up to cover the upper part of the body, with straps to go over the shoulders.

[@JeffN-yx4ft]

This is really cool, Thank you❤

Pull tabs weren't superceded because of any supposed "concern for the environment. Pull tabs were phased out because they were _extremely_ dangerous. The first and most deadly problem with pull tabs was that most people would dump them into the soda can, instead of throwing it away. Unfortunately, those used tabs were literally razor sharp, and occasionally, someone would have a bad day: the pull tab would come out of the can while drinking, and it would get swallowed. A curved razor blade going down was at best a risky business, with many people requiring emergenccy surgery to surviv.*

[@monghuni798]

Some folks would put the soda can tabss right into the can/soda. Many people chocked and died from this action.

[@Mic420m]

Some would make extravagant chain decorations out of them

[@Jayne-bt5en]

It was common practice. I never knew of anyone drinking the pop top so I will guess the chokers were drunk or else that is an urban legend 😮
