Remember those days growing up when you had to stay home because you were sick? For a parent, it's a pain to deal with. But for a kid, it's sometimes viewed as a privilege.

But for some reason as a kid, the thought of getting a free day away from school outweighed what it felt like being sick. But hey, that's kids for you.

However, there is one thing we all had in common when we were home sick from school. And it's something some kids today also have in common.

Every weekday at 11 a.m., we would turn on the TV and watch an episode of The Price Is Right. For most of us, it wasn't just a luxury to watch. It was mandatory.
