    Mine was the Barbie Townhouse with the elevator. (The novelty of the elevator soon wore off and it was easier just to place her on whatever floor you wanted.) :laugh:

    and

    The Mystery Date Game!! :drinker: Oooooh the razzing you would get from your buddies if your date was the nerd. :embarassed: :ohwell:

    Yours?

    my mom saved my mystery date game and my daughter and i used to play it together. she is 21 now so maybe someday we will play with it with her daughter!

    I was really into astronomy, and when I was 14 or 15, my dad surprised me with a really great telescope. I still have it and use it. It was by far the best gift ever. My parents started giving us $ in December to shop for our own Christmas gifts, which she would then wrap, and we'd pretend to be surprised on Christmas, when we were pre-teens, so that surprise gift was really awesome. LOL

    A puppy! My dad found a stray right before christmas and they wrapped up a bunch of dog toys and treats and surprised us with the cutest puppy Christmas morning. We named him Chris and he was the best dog ever!

    but to answer the question, for me, the BEST present ever was the *second* Cabbage Patch I got. My first one was OK, but she was a readhead and had a weird name: Floria. I didn't like her that much. BUT the next year I got a PREEMIE! Maggie. I thought she was THE best present OF ALL TIME.
