1. Those commercials that try and sell you ringtones for your phone -u/dontcareitsonlyreddi

2. Sneakers that you pump up. I had models with both internal and external pumping mechanisms. -u/jmacd2918

3. 3D TVs. I am not sure if I would call them hugely popular but at CES one year they were super popular and by the following year there was barely one in sight. -u/shellwe

4. Those sour altoids. Damn those were good. -u/streachh

5. I know a guy who saw the fidget spinner thing coming. He mass produced a bunch of them, sold through the entire stock, then sold his company immediately after and bowed out right before the whole thing cratered. I sort of feel sorry for whoever he left holding the bag. But man, those things just didn't stick around long. -u/OhYeahThrowItAway
