Time-Life’s collection of Holiday Favorites (ok, that’s an easy one).

Everybody please join me!

Things made by Ronco. Of course, these were more in evidence in the 70s and 80s, but you’ll still see them. Where it once was 30 seconds for the battery tester and pocket fisheman, now it’s 30 minutes for the Rotisserie Grill (although they advertise the grill year round).

Inky I just squirted Dr. Pepper out of my right eye! That is just simply hilarious…I actually whistled the entire freaking tune!

Big Mouth Billy Bastard and all his kind.

Also, £1 worth of goods packaged in a 20p basket, priced at £10.

ribbon candy

It took this long for someone to mention candy canes???

Harvey’s Bristol Cream.

Who the hell drinks that stuff?

(prepares for angry “I DO, BASTARD” replies)

You mean you drink it? Hell I thought you put that in your hair!

Chia Pets

goboy, I believe the correct spelling is:

Ch- ch- ch- chia pets

Batteries. Yes, you can buy them all year round, but the advertising goes way up around the holidays.

Cheap “sparkling wines.” I love all the ways they come up with to say that this is almost like expensive champagne.

Those slippers. I don’t know what they’re called, but they’re the foot equivelent of Isotoner gloves. Sort of a shiny faux leather outside, and a fleecy inside.

Turtles candy.

Chanel No. 5

I’m not sure if their commercials are poetic or just plain freaky.
