    I picked up a 'tavern puzzle' at a flea market one time and I could never find a place that sells them so I could get more variety of different kinds of them.

  • A DVD/VCR combo player

    During my transition from VHS tape to DVD, I bought a DVD/VCR combo player around 20 years ago so that I could play both my VHS tapes and the DVD.  The combo player stopped working after 15 years of usage.  None of the retail stores stocked the combo player.  However, the few combo players available at online retailers cost an average of 300 dollars, a steep sum that I did not want to pay when standalone DVD players cost around 35 dollars.  So, I bought a standalone DVD player, and it's fortunate that the feature movies that I had on VHS tapes were mostly available on DVD.

    A locking Swiss Army Knife. It had a locking mechanism unlike the newer ones. It was also black, which I had never seen before. I lost it when I took my kids sledding.
