[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 610833, member: 84"] UAN there is a type of spray paint you can buy for the toys like Little Tykes and make even the most faded worn ones look like new. :) I'm a bit brain dead right now. I did pick up Oliver's halloween costume a really cute tiger one for 4.00 when it's the kind that easily sells for 40.00 retail, nothing wrong with it. Found Alex a batman cape for .25 for his costume. This year I've gotten several yard bags full of yarn for next to nothing. Most of it unused. I did find one of those metal shopping carts the elderly tend to use when they walk to local stores for 5.00 like new. Retail is 30.00. This will likely be Katie's xmas present because they do so much walking to the store and carrying bags of food back is not fun or easy in any quantity. We do try to take her with us when we can but schedules make it difficult. We've been picking up classic novels for the grandchildren at yard sales and goodwill and the like for a steal all in mint condition. I am proud to say that ALL my grandchildren are addicted to books. I have been randomly picking up clothing items for the grands both at yard sales and via our local fb yard sale pages for ridiculous prices. This includes thermal underwear for everyone in the family. Not sure why but I feel a need to stock up on thermal undies....... I did find Aubrey an American Girl doll that looks as if it just came out of the box for 1.00. I just need to make her an outfit (no sweat) and it will be a xmas gift. :) I went shopping in Amish country and picked up all the grandsons had carved wooden pistols with real leather holsters for 5.00 each. So if anyone has a suggestion on wear to look for quality belts for said holsters cheap I'd appreciate the tip. lol AWESOME finds Susie and UAN. I am always alert to a fabulous deal these days. Sadly it is the ONLY way I can buy anything that isn't absolutely necessary. *sigh* [/QUOTE]
