What Was Your Favorite Thing To Buy To Go Back To School?

New school clothes. I remember getting a Fonzie, Marvel, Battlestar Galactica, and Star Wars T-shirts and hoodie all in the same year.

I remember getting a dark green (Garanimals?) twill jacket with metal buttons that I wore for three years (3-4-5 grades) until I outgrew it. Gad I loved that thing, it made me feel like an Adventurer.

A friend of mine still insists we should have Garanimals for adults.

Did any one here get a school box for pencils and stuff?I usually got cloths and sneakers and a lunch box was always a given till it high.

went weeks looking at different stores trying to decide which folders to get! so many licensed folders and only allowed to get a couple. you had to choose wisely.

I hated school. The end of summer vacation was like Bizarro Christmas Eve.

Preach! Summer is life. Even as an adult, The beginning of Summer feels like limitless possibility. After the fourth of July tho, it starts winding down, and when the school supplies hit Walmart, you know the party's over. The only bright spot is the coming of Halloween. After that, it's garbage weather until the first hints of Spring.

Probably new sneakers...Alot of the other kids already had the leather nike and adidas long before I did...so when I finally got my first pair, at one of the A & N stores, it was very cool...
