Older Adults, What Old Products Do You Still Use Because They've Stood The Test Of Time?
Recently, I was looking for a new moisturizer and came across a recommendation on Reddit that suggested I "don't sleep on old lady products," alongside a glowing review of Pond's Cold Cream moisturizer. I remember my late grandmother using this stuff throughout the early 2000s, and I kind of love that it's still getting respect like the icon it is. In a world full of endless new skincare products and what feels like overnight trends, there's something comforting about a beauty product that's been around forever and still delivers. If it ain't broke, why fix it? So, if you're an older adult, I want to hear from you. What are the other old-school, maybe even slightly outdated, but still wonderfully perfect products or brands you absolutely swear by to this day? Because, let's be real, things just aren't made like they used to be. Related: Maybe you've got a blender, rice cooker, or mixer that's been chugging along for 20+ years and still works like new. Your grandkids complain their modern versions don't last, and now they're scouring eBay trying to find your model. Related: Perhaps you're personally behind Carhartt jackets making a fashion comeback, as you've had the same old Carhartt jacket for 29 years (yes, 29!) that you still wear every single weekend, bonfire, or whenever you need to do yard work. It's a little worn in, but there is no fraying or rips. You've had winter coats that don't even last a season, yet your trusty old workman's jacket has never let you down. Or maybe you've had the same Toyota RAV4 for 24 years. You've driven it cross-country from California to Michigan numerous times, clocked nearly 400,000 miles, and it still runs like a dream. Sure, you've had other vehicles, but nothing else has held up quite like this one. If you've got a product, brand, or even an appliance that's never let you down, tell us what it is and why it deserves legendary status. Drop it in the comments or submit it through this anonymous form. Some younger person out there wasting money on flashy, flimsy junk will thank you (me).
