I have an old set of my mom's velvet hot rollers that i took to collage with me. They are from the mid 80s. Work great. I've bought 3 other sets, some cheap, some very expensive and they all sucked compared to the conair set from the 80s. You can't even find velvet wrapped ones anymore. So annoying.

I have some velvet hot rollers. They work really well still. Maybe because they only get used once/2 years or so.

I have cookware from the 70s and 80s that were hand-me-downs from my Mom or ex MIL- the old white Corningware with the green flowers on the side , some Le Creuset. I have a bunch of 70s-80s vinyl records from my youth that I play on my old stereo circa 1990. I have old t shirts from high school and the oversized sweatshirt that I wore in college all the time in the 80s, but I don’t really use those anymore.
