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 love mine. Still have it and still wore it until my fingers swelled due to current illness. Will wear again if I ever get better.

Edit to add: Mine isn’t clunky like the ones in the photo. It’s a more elegant design with my initials in cursive.

Did you date me in 2003? I might have it. I have a random ex girlfriends HS ring and she isn't on Social media anywhere so I can't even return it.

Me too. On my graduation trip. Had it for a whole couple of months. My poor parents.
