Before bitcoin and the internet became a thing, there was pogs & slammers? Anyone collect these in the 90s, if you were even born yet? I remember trading a few rare ones for $xx-$xxx & vidya in the mid 90s. They once started to be used as a currency/bartering tool for drugs/games/food at least in my neighborhood. Kids went crazy for them. Anyone remember when rare beanie babies sold for $xxxx? or people use to collect baseball/basketball/football cards and sell them for top dollar? or even rare coins? Those were the days...

based pogs, slammers were like gold

everyone had the meme ones like ninja star or bomb slammer, but my old trusty thick coin style always came through

I used to go into the playground with my slammer and a couple of pogs and would walk out with a whole stack of them.

I even remember having a couple of the ones in that picture
