Common household objects that have now disappeared

I saw one of these the other day - a real blast from the past...

It made me start to think about some of the things that you'd once find in every house but now have disappeared. What are some of your nominations?

I didn't recognise what that was intially!...It's been so long since I've seen one..

I have fond memories as a kid helping my dad stuff the incinerator with all the rubbish and then setting it alight..
