6/10
WOW!!! I got one out of ten 🙀 PU!
This quiz is a mess!
it says I got 6 of 10, but 2 of those things were (according to the description) actually the most expensive. so, in reality, I got 8 of 10.
3/10 🤦🏻♂️
6/10 but some of those were before my time so I had to guess.
3/10 yikes.
Love it even though I got 5/10 🤣
2/10
I don't understand this quiz. On #3 I chose the frying pan and got this on my answer: "Incorrect! It was $9.88! The other stuff was $6.49 and $3.99!"
Wouldn't that make it the most expensive item"
There were a few more questions like that, too.
I guess it would have helped if they identified what "IT" is.

Exactly. I was confused by that also
What it states is that the calculator was $9.88 and the other two were cheaper.
Not on mine. Next to my incorrect answer it stated exactly what I posted in quotes above. It didn't mention "calculator" being the correct answer at all, just "it."
5&6 appear to be backwards on the answer.
Agreed. Confusing
Radar detectors were like over $100 no way a Walkman was more .
4/10 Was using too many current price comparisons.
6/10. What is funny is I largely did better with the things well before my time over the ones I was alive for.
3/10. How did I make it this far !
I'm just going to.say "No, I.cant guess the most expensive thing" and leave it there...
Me, too.
At some point in this quiz, they started highlighting the correct answer, instead of stating it (when you guess incorrectly).
It was nostalgic and fun.
I got 6/10.
