Yeah, so some of the things I think that, uh, you know, I like to see when I'm out at yard sales are anything that reminds me of, you know, my childhood.
You and me were both born in the '60s.
Mm.
Kind of had our formative years in the '70s, elementary school, junior high, high school in the '80s.
So I think finding anything that reminds you of those times, whether it's like you mentioned lunch boxes that if you're fortunate enough, still have the thermos because really that's where the value is, is, uh, in the thermos 'cause those, I guess the...
Back then they had the glass inserts in them-
Yeah
... and those often got broken when you dropped them.
[laughs] Yeah.
I can remember dropping the thermos and you'd hear the kkk, and you know-
[laughs]
...
it went straight in the trash, so.
Yep.
And you know, the funny thing is if you'd have thought to save that, maybe even without the glass, there'd probably be some value today, but, you know, hey, it's broken, I can't use it.

It was kind of-
Yeah
... an out, you know, outdoorsy G.I. Joe.
Had the camper-
Yep
... set and everything.
Yep.
Um, you know, I was never much into comics, but I know that's something that a lot of people from our timeframe were really into.
Of course sports cards.
