My mom gave us $5 cash and a list of things to find such as
something:
to wear
to read
sexy
square
that smells
flowers
something red
......

I think there were 20 items. I don't remember the scoring but you wanted to have the most items found with the most money left over and the least number of items purchased. We had teams of 2 -3. I think my mom assigned them. This was a surprise party for me.

I remember our "string bikini" 99 cent undies that were red checkers - it was our sexy, red square underwear - back then it was a racy purchase! We also bought a Christmas sympathy card that we drenched in the perfume counter.


wow. That list is for an 11 year old? And people say we've lowered our cultural standards…
