Uggh. I was in the WalMart shampoo aisle the other day for what seemed like hours looking for a clarifying shampoo. I remember Aussie used to make a good one. I found just one but it was in the next aisle over with the hand cream. (I'll post the name and let you know if it's any good once DD tries it.)

Anyway, one thing I did see that was a blast from the past and reminded me of this thread was a dry shampoo product called (ready for this?)

Psssssst (Anyone remember that jingle? Pee ess ess ess es s s tee!)

I also found Certs original flavor in Family Dollar today. Was anyone here looking for those? It was the first time my kids ever tried them. Tasted like they always did.

You can still get Psssst! I can only find it at Walgreens. My dd loves it. I first bought it for her to take to WDW and she always has to have some handy now. Tressemme makes a similiar product, but dd prefers Pssssst.

...Fun Fruits and Fruit Wrinkles

Loved Fun Fruits! They were the best! I still have a plastic 6" Fun Fruits ruler that I got back in high school (20+ years ago!)

Clearly Canadian

New York Seltzer

Seems all I drank in high school was Clearly Canadian and New York Seltzer. I wish at least one of them would come back

Tincture Merthiolate.

My mom didn't use it, but both my grandmothers did. That stuff was painful!

For my WDW trips, I bought Purex laundry tablets. Can't find these at all.

They make sheets now that are detergent and fabric softener in one. They're great for travel.

I can't stand it by itself, but I do have a recipe that calls for it and I get it on amazon.

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_s...&field-keywords=dream+whip&sprefix=dream+whip

Last place in the world I ever would have thought to look for it.. For some reason "food products" & "Amazon" don't click together in my mind..

Thanks for the link!

Think I'll order a big box - I have so many recipes that call for it - and then I won't have to worry about finding it anymore..

Right about now I REALLY miss "Cope". I don't know how many others might remember it, but it was an OTC pill for headaches, kind of like Excedrin or Motrin. I'm kicking myself that I never checked to see what was in it. It specifically targetted tension headaches.
The other thing I miss is Turpenhydrate, a cough syrup. My parents said that when I was little it had codeine, but I loved it as an adult, no codeine. It tasted awful, made my eyes water, but boy, did it do the job! Not like that wimpy cherry r grape stuff nowadays. This stuff made your eyes water!

They have "COPE" on drugstore.com, it is acetaminophen. Some reviewers say it used to contain aspirin/caffeine.

Thanks! I'll bet it was aspirin and caffeine when I took it.

I think Quisp is still sold in NY state, too. I was so happy to have found it online. I order it from Amazon and share it. Quisp is pure sugary goodness!

My favorite cereal. But it isnt available here in AZ.

Have you looked at Target? Ours just started carrying it a couple weeks ago.

I wish they would start selling Vienetta again. Apparently it is still available in Europe. It was so delicious.

Plus they have Taco Bell refried beans of all things. This might sound odd but these are the only canned refried beans we like.

Yay Amazon!

I LOVED Fudgetowns! I would love for them to bring those back.

When I read the name Fudgetowns I get a quick little "blast of memory" of the flavor, but I can't picture them.

I am now really missing the Stella Doro assortment since I know it's not there anymore.
