    Amazing video . As I was born in 1979 I remember everything in the Argos Catalogue. Had a Head pink bag and remember before we went on holiday my Mum used to check the Tv guide and recorded everything on the recorder. Great memories 😂.

    I had the red head school bag and the Panasonic touch button Walkman. Ideal for school as I was in year 10 back in 1991. What a fantastic blast from the past! Thanks so much for doing this video! Keep up the awesome videos.👍👍

    Hilarious Dave. We used to love it when the new Argos Catalogue came out. I didn’t buy it from Argos but I remember going into Woolworths & buying my hi fi tower for my bedroom as a teenager. Those were the days! 😂
