Default Nancy McKeon in Fruity Pebbles/Cocoa Pebbles commercial (1976)

Wait a minute, Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble? Are they that "wrong crowd of people" Jo started hanging around with that sent her down the wrong path before Eastland?

I can see little Nancy M scowling to little Lisa Whelchel: "I got Cocoa Pebbles!"


I like that coin!

I miss the days when they put chokable things inside cereal boxes and no one got all bent out of shape over it. Does anyone remember Diving Tony from Frosted Flakes boxes in the 80's? It was the coolest cereal toy!

Nope, before my time, but I do remember in the '80s absolutely loving "wacky wall walkers"! It was so much fun throwin' 'em against a wall and watchin' 'em walk down all---wacky!

I remember those cool toys from cereal boxes. The wall walkers were great till they got hair and carpet fibers stuck to them, then they became worthless.

I was born back when people wore polyester and danced to brick house.

Yup, those are one of the types!

I also vividly remember an orange Garfield bicycle reflector that you snapped on your bike's spokes! His eyes were the reflectors! He came in various colors, and I loved that mine was orange, just like his real color!

I remember every word of the kids' lines, here. I'm pretty sure we must have collected these. I had no idea the girl was "our Jo".
