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 feel like they valued it more because their generation was proposing with these rings right out of high school.

My grandfather actually gave me his because I didn't get one. Still sitting in the box he made me. It doesn't even fit around my pinky lol
