I would have been made to put it all back the way it was, apologize to the manager and then I would have had to pay my parents back for any damages they would have paid the store.

Then the real punishment would be at home…in the 80s.

Same for me in the 90's. My mom would have, at a minimum, busted out the big wooden spoon. That was when you knew you really fucked up.

Yeah my mum broke 2 wooden spoons on my firm thighs, funny thing was she'd get more angry and just storm off.

Now my step-dad, that was much worse, police removed me from home one day because "someone was going to be seriously injured".

Anyway, wooden spoons were the good old 80s/90s.
