Quick Contest - 28th April - Contest Closed Winner Announced

Dear Crushers,

Ever had a bad (or good) case of DeJa Vu?

No I'm not talking of my Uni experiences - and I don't even know where the term 'DeJa Vu' came into it - but I was thinking about the 'old days' - when butter tasted like 'butter' lol...

So, tell me your best things from the past... the best peanut butter, the best candy (sweets if you're from UK lol) and you might be today's' spangle (my favorite candy that is no longer made)...


Deja Vu? Deja Vu? Deja Vu? Deja Vu?

Deja Vu? Deja Vu? Deja Vu? Deja Vu?

I have not seen those litle black balls (candy) you suck on them and they change colors and i cannot find sponge toffee.

When I was a kid (10 years ago LOL) The canybar "Watchamacallit" (real name) was made with no caramel.. I miss that!

I remember when I was a kid when the 'milkman' would deliver the milk to the doorstep in GLASS bottles, my sisters and I would fight over who would get the cream from the top. I think mum used to leave the money for the milk on the doorstep too without it being stolen....lol

I miss my favorite icecream, kongeice, chocolade and biscit

WHAT I MISS FROM THE GOOD OLE DAYS IS MY YOUTH AND NOT HAVING TO PAY THE BILLS. MY PARENTS DID LOL

I used to love Coltsfoot Rock.

i miss not being able to get 2 for a penny sweets or 10p mix bags!!!!!!!

Oh and my grans sunday dinner with soggy yorkshire pudding she took the recipe to her grave

Birthdays.could hardly sleep day before.Now.they come to soon,to often.......and hardly fun at all

I miss maple leaf candy! It is still around if you can find it I think.

I MISS my all time favorite perfume "Evening in Paris" they no longer make it. I once bought a HUGE gallon of it in a deep blue bottle in Mexico. When it finally ran out I went to buy some more only to find it was no longer made!! I was really upset for years LOL

Roller Skates: The metal kind you tightened to your shoe with a key hahahaha

Though there are a few around they aren't the same.... drive in burger joints where they waited on you in your car and hooked a tray to your window with your food. We didn't have wipe-ups then *snicker*

Outdoor Movie Theatres the kind you could make-out in your car instead of watching the movie *BLUSH* hated the speakers though hahahahaah

retro to me is the good days of the 1980's, those were good times and life was so fun,these days its all about my medical problems...back in the 80's as a dancer , friends and the college bars... life changes so much anymore and so fast...what little bit of things that are left are slowly disapearing, but huey lewis and the news is in concert here soon so that floods me with wonderful memories of the 80's

I remember the little 6 oz. bottles of soda pop that we could get for 5 cents! Fawn Cream Soda was my favorite!
