    I saw a picture of these on Facebook and the memories flooded back,I'd totaly forgotten about them.They were rubber finger puppets that were briefly all the rage in school playgrounds in the 80s.

    I do, but I had no clue what they were called until now! I think we had a couple of them at home, I remember the green one. I've no idea where they came from or from what (maybe Kellogg's?) but I know we definitely had the green one. I think around the time or sometimes after there were ones as pencil tops too?

    Well the Jigglers name I found out from someone in the States posting on FB so they could have been called something else over here.I have to admit I have no idea either where they originated from or where you got them,only that they were a brief enough craze

    Your fingers would stink after having one on (careful now!).

    Probably lots of toxic chemicals seeped into our hands...
    Always got them in the local newsagents or poundshops.
