Every year has its "Cabbage Patch Doll".

I just remembered that you posted about wanting to buy an X-Box. I am sure some of my grandchildren are getting one for Christmas.

I knew a guy who opened a store in the river town of Havana, Illinois. Barbie craze. He got a doll plus dozens of empty boxes and put them in his window as a draw. The Barbie got sold and his place burned.

I recall they were very big about 10 years ago.
