Or those bubble things you'd blow up with a plastic tube?
You can still buy both of those from Dodgy Abdul at my local car booty.
UPDATE: I'm not being racist, that really is his name.
And they used some SLIME as a prop in Destiny of the Daleks.

I still see them here in Texas, but we're much closer to Mexico than you are.
I remember having some when I was younger, but maybe they don't sell them here anymore, what with them having something alive in there.
