I guess the first big thing I remember is our first TV. It was a Crosley probably about a 21" B&W sat on it's own table Then the next big thing would be the 8 track tape players for cars.
Hey, remember your first aluminum can? And pop tops?

I worked with a guy in the 70s who shared the patent for the pop top.
He was a machine designer. In his previous job, he designed aluminum cans. He said the mandate was to make a can with the absolute minimum material. Unmeasurible by the consumer, but with BILLIONS used, microscopic savings were extremely valuable.
