For me it was a Mr Frosty and a playdoh barber shop, i still haven't forgiven my mum and dad

OMG freaky as soon as i read the title of this post those were the two things that instantly sprung to mind.

xx

Oh I can't remember! We weren't spoilt, but I never really wanted toys as we had 3 ponies each, cats, dogs and sheep etc!

I'm sure there would be something I didn't get - but it can't have been that important!

Ner ner... I had a Mr Frosty

I do remember when I was 6 that I wanted a 'Keeper', the plastic one that came with a key. My mum and dad split up and for that Xmas my mum got me a Keeper, but it was the teddy version. I was gutted!

I kept my mouth shut until I was about 15 and then I told her that it wasnt the one I wanted... she has never forgiven herself, lol!

I always wanted a Mr frostie and the Soda Stream
I was never allowed to go trick or treating or carol singing either, my mum said it was scaving lol! But now she cant wait to take Tayla :S

I had a soda stream, the mix was so expensive though and the pop tasted bleurgh

Baby Alive, the doll that eats pee's cries and poo's...wasn't allowed that, but they made up for that by granting me 3 sisters. AND I wasn't allowed play dough, after getting some from my grandparents and getting it stuck in the carpet. I don't allow play dough either. xx

You stingey old bag!
Izzy gets it everywhere, I mean everywhere! but it sweeps up fine!

There is an ad on tv now for those dolls that do everything, its £45 or something daft like that

It poo's!!! Ewgh! Lol! x

LOL! I did allow it when Matt was little, and knew exactly why my parents said no. It's horrible stuff! Even after years of not allowing it in the house, I would still find dried up pieces embedded in things. Same with those lite brights, I was forever stepping on or vacuuming up the little pegs. My kids are horrible at picking up after themselves or taking care of their toys. Madisyn is the worst offender!

Laura..it poo's! You feed it the baby food designed for it..and it will crap it's pants. Yes, even back in the 1970's..they had annoying filthy toys! LOL!

I wasn't allowe dplaydough either, or finger paints

Mr Frosty, as soon as I saw the title the memory of longing for it returned!!! I dont know why i wasnt allowed it though.... I bet my mum would buy Caitlin it if she asked, grandkids get spoilt

I got Caitlin a doll from argos for christmas that crys and talks for £12.99. It doesnt pee or poo though. Cant believe a doll poo's

I had a Mr Frosty and a soda stream... I really wanted dream phone but wasn't allowed that

my friend had it though so would just go and play hers but it's not the same is it!?

I really really wanted a Mr Frosty too!

I was never allowed "Silly Putty" as I sat on some and squished into my new PJ's and the new sofa (ops!)

there was never anything i really wanted....i know that i loved my brothers' cars though but kept getting dolls and pink stuff shoved at me...i never asked for anything though(even to this day i don't ask for things) so i'd not be disappointed when i was told no

Every year I asked for a chemistry set, and never got one!!!

Think mum thought I'd do some damage.....I have always wondered if thats why I ended up a pharmacy tech tho???? I always wanted to 'do experiments'

I always wanted a Cabbage Patch Kid

My SIL is obsessed with them, she's bought ava one for Christmas and I'm not happy!

I had a cabbage patch kid but I was never into dolls so I never really appreciated it. I always wanted a Mr Frosty and never got one although Argos are selling a Penguin version so I might "buy it for MJ" (meaning I'll buy it for her but I'll have to test it out myself make sure it works and all that)

I kinda got them but for 2days i always wanted roller blades so i got them when i was 13 i had them for 2days and i fell down the drive and broke my arm so i pretended my friendd pushed me so the blades didnt get blamed but my mum n dad freaked at the girls parents so i had to come clean and got them converskated i never saw them again every year i asked for pair i wanted nothing else but them but i never got another pair xx

I bought my niece one a few years back.
Shame I've only got boys

A pony.

as soon as i saw the title i thought of Mr Frosty - why did we all want one??

Me and my bro asked for one loads of times and never got it as my mom said we would not use it. We had loads of other ridiculous items so i am not sure why Mr Frosty was a no!

They must have had some excellent marketing as we all wanted one

Ok..how many of us ladies got an Easy Bake Oven? I so loved mine!
