What was the one thing you wanted but your parents didn't buy for you?
 

Pow pow powerwheels.

Man, I wanted those bad mother.

A skateboard. I really wanted one.

The Barbie Corvette. I had a fit at the store.

And what were those called again? Sit-n-spins???

hungry hungry hippos. but i only wanted it so i could make fun of my neighbor that i didn't like that was on the box.


sandy, we had a few sit 'n spins at my house. those were the best! we also found one in one of the closet's in the alpha gam suite one year when cleaning it out. oh the fun we had!

MAN O MAN O MAN. See, if we were next door neighbors we woulda been good to go!

I had a Hungry Hungry Hippos game that I woulda gladly shared with you... even if you didn't have sit n spins at your house!!!

yay! a few people in my neighborhood had the game and we would all get together and make fun of this girl. no one liked her... we were mean little kids.

a flute
bought one when i got out of college, took some lessons, but never was all that good. so maybe they were righ

Well, a pool. But every kid who doesn't have one wants one of those! They said it was too big of a liability...

And an easy bake oven!

But I shouldn't complain because my parents have been very generous to me!

i always wanted an ez bake oven (altho i don't really recall ever asking for one, but whatever) so for christmas my senior year, one of my littles got me one :)

A Puffalump stuffed animal thing (anyone remember these )when I was like 6. My mother said they were stupid. :confused:

A noisy, obnoxious game like Operation, however, was OK. :confused: :rolleyes:

Me too...

I recall they had an incedent where some kid was burned by an electrical fire from one of those...

But we were born in the days when playgrounds had things that were tall and had pointy edges.

a big wheel :(

A perm. I wanted one so bad when they were popular in the late 80's. All my friends were getting them but my mother wouldn't let me. She told me that I would "thank her someday". Now I do. When I look back at pictures, I see my 7-year-old friends with puffy hair. They're hair is still damaged from the chemicals used.

I also wanted the game Mall Madness but my mean, mean parents wouldn't get it for me. :) My grandmother felt bad and bought it for me so when I went to her place, I played it there.

I wanted one too. What I wanted even more was a Green Machine.

Had the pool.... but I never did get the ez bake oven! I keep seeing them in stores now and thinking, "I could buy it now!" :D I can't even cook in the regular oven.... I totally blame my parents for that because I never learned on the ez bake oven.
