Are you feeling nostalgic? 12/22/14: Do you miss pogoing to The Romantics at your school dances? When you’re home alone, do you secretly put your hair in a high side ponytail while wearing 20 rubber bracelets and pumps with ruffled ankle socks? Do you find yourself dancing in the supermarket when Walking on Sunshine comes on the PA? Well, you’re in luck!
Here are some of the IT gifts from the early-to-mid-eighties as I remember them. Where possible, the description links to the item for sale somewhere on the internets!

Atari 2600, plus two of the hottest games of the day!

Sanyo AM/FM Dual Cassette Boombox (with auto-reverse!)

Moxi Roller Skates (I still want these!)

What a fun blast from the past! I think I still have a box of Trivial Pursuit with several expansion packs and one based on Beatles trivia! I missed those lace booties but I love them now!

I was terrible at Trivial Pursuit, but boy, was I a champ at Taboo! (Still am…)
