I saw something in the antique store the other day that catapulted me back to my childhood. Ten years old, walking down to Browns 5&10 with my allowance in hand ready to buy the newest set of Wacky Packages.

They came in a small pack like baseball cards and included the same awful piece of gum. There was a check list as well because you had to be the first of your friends to collect them all.

The cards had been around since the late 60’s, but when I bought them in the early 70’s the format had changed to stickers.

My favorites?

Crust toothpaste and Minute Lice.

What can I say? Kids are disgusting.
