Have you started your spring cleaning projects yet? I have to some degree. It feels so good to unload items you never use anymore. I'm not a garage sale person, so where to take those items? After months of staring at the items lying around the house, I toss them in the trash. Now, I can gather those items and help a great cause! You can too.

How does the saying go? Someone's Trash is Someone's Treasure.

LOOK: Things from the year you were born that don't exist anymore

The iconic (and at times silly) toys, technologies, and electronics have been usurped since their grand entrance, either by advances in technology or breakthroughs in common sense. See how many things on this list trigger childhood memories—and which ones were here and gone so fast you missed them entirely.
