when you were a kid, what do you remember collecting as a hobby? (103)
PandoraX: Me, I just have the memory of being jailbait and watching Skid Row open for Bon Jovi in Houston (the New Jersey album tour)... singing "They're coming to take me away haha". And, my Bon Jovi New Jersey pin.
Bet ya wish you had saved the ticket stub...fun memory?

pound notes
Shells-the more intricate the better. I only have a small basket now, but there are some real cool ones. also went thru a stage of collecting Thundereggs, certain types of marbles, and those model car kits.

Great memory, and a shared one with the girl who went with me. We were so damn young. She won concert tickets and invited me so my mom drove us there and picked us up afterwards!
This chick is now on my Facebook.And I like the pin i have. I would probably lose the ticket stub if I still had it, but I can always pull out that pin and wear it on a leather jacket for some nostalgia. I found the pin months ago when I was clearing out my attic.

Ditto.

Pencils because I had a habbit of chewing and spitting the rubber erarser.

If it had to do with Scouting, I collected and traded. I have badges and neckerchiefs from large camporees and Jamborees (National and Canadian), coffee mugs.
I had a pen pal in Portsmouth England at one time and we traded various badges having to do with advancement and campouts.
Later in life, I collected beer and coffee mugs from places I have been to

I always wanted pets but we moved so much, we couldn't so I make up for it now. LOL I have to be careful or I will be on the animal channel for animal hoarders (not really but I do love animals)
Postcards, stamps and books.
The book collection continues to this day, but sadly I can´t have all them with me because I´ve been travelling around for the past 11 years.

Books and stray animals

I know what you mean, I have seven little dogs, two cats and two parakeets. Have three or four aquariums, but got tired of trying to keep the large ones cleaned, so gave away the Oscars and they are empty in the garage. My children are animal lovers too and the pet shop is right up the street....I avoid it like the plaque or we'd would be haulin' more animals home....
Baseball cards and record albuns. Still have the albums.
Lego 
Baseball cards, GI Joes, Transformers, Amazonian tribal shrunken heads, star wars figures...typical stuff really
Coke cans. I had tons of Coke cans for some reason. Then, one day, I gave them to a lady to recycle.

I had 3 55 gallon aquariums back in 96 when hurricane Floyd came through NC and we lost power and everything for 2 weeks. I had Oscars and Pacus I had raised from fingerlings and lost them all. I didn't have the heart to start again so I put frogs and turtles in them. They were almost 10 years old and as big as my foot. They would come to the corner when I came into the room. Funny, you wouldn't think fish would care.
Blonde0ne: Lego
what is lego?Witchaywoman: Coke cans. I had tons of Coke cans for some reason. Then, one day, I gave them to a lady to recycle.
I collected the caps of those bottlesThe innocence of our childhood.
Making camps in the woods,playing on the bomb sites after the war,scrumping in the Convent grounds. Tizer and lardy cake. The simple things in life were much more fun and friendships meant something in those days
