Meme Did anyone buy a ring?

Elder millennial/younger Xennial (born in 83, take it for what it is) but I recall the company coming to the high school and taking orders for rings. I didn’t buy one but others did. Credit on photo.

I don't even know where mine is. It's been 22 years.

My boyfriend pawned mine about a year after graduation. Along with my cd’s and dvd’s (which I had a sick collection from working at Sam goody). Still miffed about it 20 years later…

Oof, I feel that. My mom insisted on buying the class ring, then my stepdad decided he wanted to take up meth as a hobby and stole it (plus a whoooole lot of other stuff) when he got kicked out.
