Did you know that your 80's childhood toys are now considered antiques? Would you try on an authentic used windsuit for the sake of a selfie opportunity? Do you wish you could find your see-through corded phone, just to put it up to your ear one more time?

If you get excited at the sight of painted fast food glasses or Holiday Barbies still in the box, you might be a Xennial. And we are too.

Join us on a thrifting field trip to America's Antique Mall in Melbourne, Florida.

From the unsettling Madame Alexander dolls that haunted Dani's piano lessons to iconic American Girl dolls, we encounter artifacts from our 80s childhoods and 90s teen years that are now considered antiques.

First, it’s a micro-generation Kate and Lauryn have identified with between Generation X and Millennials. This micro-generation has also been called the Oregon Trail Generation, Generation Catalano, the Star Wars Generation, Xennials, and Elder Millennials - essentially, for our purposes, those born between 1980 and 1985 who would have read Baby-Sitters Club books as they were being released in the late 80s and early 90s. (As an aside, we've come to realize since starting our journey with the Baby-Sitters Club, however, that Generation BSC really is anyone who has grown or is growing up with the BSC, but we're examining it from our perspective in particular.)
