With the holiday's here, does anyone else remember sears wishbooks?

There is a website with most of the wishbooks scanned in.
wishbookweb.com/

Post up some of the things that bring up memory's, what you had, wanted, ect.

One of mine


I had a full collection of laser tag equipment including the helmet. Its hard to believe how much it all cost.

I used to pounce on those once they came in the mail. Half of the catalog got markered, circled, pages folded. some sort of organized gift ideas for my parents. Then hand it to them LOL. Good Times!!

I remember those, FAO Schwarz and the Toy's R Us ones. You knew it was getting close to Christmas when these huge books full of nothing but Toys came in the mail. Now all we get are crappy inserts in the Sunday newspaper.

They were talking about these on a podcast I listen to the other night. I'd love to find some old ones that had some video game features in them.

I was looking at it while my in-laws were in town.
I thought it was cool how there were 5-7 pages of just wrist/pocket watches. In todays climate with cell phones, there isn't as much of a need for an inexpensive watch, because you'll always have your cell phone.
