Those Esprit cotton messenger bags. OMG I got one for my birthday and thought I'd died and gone to heaven.
Schwinn 10-speed bikes
and before those, the banana seat bike with the streamers from the handlebars
When Banana Republic sold safari-looking clothing
Going on a long family car trip and getting the AAA trip-tiks or Amoco Motor Club map with the hand-highlighted route on it.

I remember when we got our first microwave.
We had to rent the vcr along with the VHS tapes. But then I remember finally getting our own.
The neighbors had cable, so I loved going over there to watch Fraggle Rock on HBO. Also, they had Coleco Vision.

The a/c in cars not working well or the car we had did not come with it. Also seatbelts and carseats were not used a lot.

Lots of great memories for us Gen-Xers. Too bad we are sandwiched between two very large and selfish generations. At least we gave a sh!t about something besides ourselves. Sigh!
