Cats is looking through rose colored glasses.

Toys were expensive back then. They are still expensive now.

I remember buying wwf action figures then and i know what it's like to buy them now. I'm sure in 30 years mfs are going to be watching Internet videos of Walmart and target saying "man, they really used to be going to stores! Look at those prices!".

That shyt was no joke. And KB was the most expensive of all the shyts. They wanted $35 for a yomega xbrain went to Kmart and got the same one for $15.

I remember shopping with my mom at Toys R Us and Kaybee because she used to consult with me on what my little brother and sister wanted since I was the oldest still in the house at the time.

I'll always remember going to the gme section with my mom, and you had to get the paper slip for the game you wanted so they could get it for you at the cash register. Good times...:wow:
:mjcry: We lost our essence as a people. That walk to the register was special
