While Polaroid film is a dying medium, you can keep the memories going with this mirror that’s shaped like a Polaroid picture. No shaking required; just hold it up and admire how handsome you look, just like this guy. Better yet, take it with you on a date, drop it on the floor to look up your date’s skirt and you’ll have memories that will stay with you forever. Don’t tell them you heard about the idea on Gearfuse though, or they might smash your mirror and you’ll be out $29. No dice.

Go into your parent’s attic and you’ll find a box. Open it up. Inside are your childhood memories. Snocones, funnel cake – these were the times. Ah, yes. That four-shot series of photographs from the boardwalk photo booth. How grand! Wouldn’t it be great if you could relive those times? Now ya can, champ.

This authentic boardwalk photo booth from Hammacher Schlemmer costs $11,000 but the memories it will produce are priceless.

It only takes 16 seconds to print out a four-frame strip of photos and it come with enough film for 3200 pictures.
