Barbie




One day a father gets out of work, and on his way home he suddenly remembers that it's his daughter's birthday. 


He dashes over to a toy shop and asks the sales person: "how much for one of those Barbies in the display window?" 


The salesperson returns: "which one do you mean, Sir?

We have Work Out Barbie for $19.95, Shopping Barbie for $19.95, Beach Barbie for $19.95, Disco Barbie for $19.95, Ballerina Barbie for $19.95, Astronaut Barbie for $19.95, Skater Barbie for $19.95, and Divorced Barbie for $199.95."



The amazed father asks: "how much?! Why is the divorced Barbie $199.95 and the others only $19.95?" 


The annoyed salesperson rolls her eyes, sighs, and answers: "sir, the other Barbies only come with an outfit. Divorced Barbie comes with: Ken's Car, Ken's House, Ken's Boat, Ken's Furniture, Ken's Computer and one of Ken's best friends."

  5. Oh my, Cat. This will date me, but I remember the very first Barbie doll cost $3.00. I played with her underneath my grandmother's sewing table.

  11. Oh my gosh! Divorced Barbie! In my house, Barbie dated G.I. Joe. I heard when the Toy Story people were doing the movie that had Ken in it, they realized that Ken was a Barbie accessory. That still makes me laugh!

    Thanks for sharing!

    1. LOL Cygnet...when I was growing up, I used to swipe my brother's G.I. Joe so that my friends and I could have a wedding with our Barbies and Ken. Hadn't heard the one about Toy Story...that's funny. ;)
