Yeahhhh color TV for me as well. Ha. My dad was slow to jump on such "exravagences", but we finally got one, circa early 70's.
In '76 we visited some of our rather well-to-do relatives from north of Toronto who just happened to have a microwave. I'd never seen one before that. We didn't get one ourselves until maybe five years later. No one I knew had one back then other than those relatives.
That same year (1976) I was at the Olympics in Montreal, was on a day visit to Terre Des Hommes (Man and his World) and got to shoot an actual laser rifle. I remember being quite impressed by it.
