does anyone remmeber that for a while in the early 90's Hershey's had a mint chocolate bar??! ohhhhh it was so good!

And I am glad they brought Boo Berry back, cause for a long time you couldn't find it anywhere.

Also I doubt anyone knows what I am talking about but way back in the late 80's, when I was little, I collected Sylvanian Families. THey were cute little fuzzy animal figures, you could buy a whole family's worth and they had all types of animals. I had a TON of them. Am I the only one who remembers these?

And no one has mentioned My Buddy or Kid Sister! I am surprised.

One time, me and my mother found this Aussie conditioner at this Drug Emporium, it was specially formulated to make red hair brighter. I think it may have had some dye in it, the conditioner itself was red. And it made my hair sor vibrant, people would ALWAYS comment on my hair. I lOVED it, and we bought all they had left, but I've never seen it again.

I'd pay FULL PRICE for it, that's how good it was, and I don't pay full price for ANYthing.

Honey Roasted Reeses Peanut Butter Cups. I recently found some of these in a Big Lots in Springfield.

I never had a My Buddy or Kid Sister, but I did have several My Friend dolls...My Friend Mandy, My Friend Jenny, My Friend Becky.

No.... I remember these. I had a few bear familes and some other animal that was grey.
I also had at least one if not more of the following: star wars figurines, My Little Ponies, Glo-worms, care bears, pound puppies, cabbage patch kids, Dotty-Dog skating puppy, barbies, strawberry shortcake and friends, herself the elf and friends, transformers, popples, popbeads, wonder woman underoos.....

I miss Orbit gum. I bought a bunch on my trip, but they don't sell it around here.

Also miss Pineapple Crush, which is only sold in Newfoundland.

1. Gap's "Grass" (I know it was mentioned earlier)

2. Glow Worm, Glow Baby and I think there's another Glow thing...

3. Those note pad things where you erase what you've written/drawn by lifting the page up.

That's it for now...more later

Let's swap...I'll send you some Orbit gum if you send me some Citrus Trident. (I loooove that stuff but they don't sell that flavor in the US. Whenever I go to Canada I stock up!)

I see Pineapple Crush from time to time here but not a whole lot. They make Pineapple Fanta too but I have only found it a couple times. There are all sorts of great Fanta flavors you can get in England that you can't get here.

My favorite was grape juice, and the bunch of grapes shape was much easier to hold onto than the orange.

I almost forgot about these! I loved the orange ones.

Life Savers Holes rocked.

Anyone remember the Wendy's Super Bar? It had the salad bar, Mexican bar and pasta bar and it was all you can eat for $5 or so? I wish that would come back.
