[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Grew up in an upper middle class family, but can still relate to a lot of this...couponing with mom, cars that we drove until they died (and dad somehow managed to resurrect them time and time again before the final death) and most of all, hand me downs for everything! I was the oldest so my hand me downs came from the neighbors. Clothes, shoes, Halloween costumes (or else my mom made them out of bedsheets and felt scraps), bikes...my two favorite hand me down items were a bright yellow banana seat bike and a purple and white striped one piece romper that I wore all summer and then brought to school to use as my gym clothes.[/quote] This is my point. You did not have to be poor, people were just a lot more conservative. Today, even if someone is going to make a Halloween costume, they start with a trip to Michael's. [/quote]
