Ha! Do you remember the Mc Nugget promo with the asian-like sauce and chopsticks? My Dad would get those for me and I would stay busy for hours. And I thought the VCR was some space age thing for rich people!

Answer 2

Yes to all except the liter glass bottles. Although I think you can still get tonic water and alcohol in them sometimes.

Here are some more things to make you feel old. 8 Track Tapes, Rabbit ears antennas. 12 ounce glass pop bottles. Drive-In movies. A&W Root Beer Stands with the speakers to order from. Restaurants where you picked up a phone at the table to place your order. Only having 4 TV stations to choose from. TV stations that actually shut down at one or two in the morning. Mono AM radios in your car. AM radio that actually played all types of music-not just sports and talk shows.
45 RPM singles.

I miss glass bottles of pop. When I was a kid, I used to get a glass bottle of Dr. Pepper out of the pop machine. Then we'd go around collecting the bottles coz if you turned them in, you could get about 3-5 cents for them. Don't remember exactly, it's been too long ago. It was fun though. It was definitely the good old days.....
