 So many wonderful things!!! The bunnies of course got my attention fast, and the witch hat. The two Staffordshire dishes...oh how I wish you'd gotten the matching plates too. I'm a bright shade of green now! |

| LOL Karen...thanks... I knew the bunnies would catch your eye! Check out post #2... jane |

| Jane, That is a hoot, shopping on the runway! Boy did you get some good things. I love the witch hat, and the gold-trimmed dishes. They look kind of brick-y on my monitor--but to me the design suggests burgundy. Can you use them for fall? The napkin rings, the Christmas server, the transferware--and you have a second post?!! I can hardly wait! - Magpie |

| Jane you're adorable. I bet that was so much fun! I LOVE those china plates! |
|
| Jane, knew you wouldn't let us down, you shopaholic you! Love all of your new goodies. I'll bet you are just sad about not buying the matching plates @ $1 ea. You sound like me if I don't buy everything I like I kick myself later. After joining this forum, I buy it all and then figure out what to do with it later. Even if it means donating it, which I have done alot of. Have you put all of it away? So happy for you and all your great buys. Punk |
|
| Thanks again everyone... Some of you I responded to in the other post...and some here.. C/angel..I know the cartoon character you mean..and I laughed because that was definitely the case here! jeanne..luvs...wish you were there...wish you were there!! Shee..thanks for the compliment...I've seen your pic..and I feel 'You' are the adorable one!! Punk...glad I didn't let you down. I know what you mean about buying it then think about it later...I try to do that..but this time around...I think I was so overwhelmed...I got 'Stupid' !! :( jane |

| Jane, WRITE down where you stash the new stuff. LOL... I'm still Pheasant hunting! Arrrgggghhhhh. This is NOT fun. As for being a Dish Lady, I figure that's a lot better than being a Bag Lady. Or spending your money in bars, hugs, Karen |
|
| Karen... 'I Hear Ya'... You're right, I should write where I put everything..because honestly, I was rushing to get it away, and I actually was thinking to myself...'will I remember it's here'...lol I still can't believe you can't find those pheasants...they were too nice to not find ... maybe when you take out your Christmas stuff !!!! lol grrrr I agree that our 'habit' is better than most bad habits. I guess we have to keep saying that to ourselves...it could be worse...it could be worse!! However, as far as our families being lucky... I dread thinking of when the day comes and they have to 'deal with all of it'...Actually, I don't want to think about it! lol jane |

| Wowsa! Christmas, fall, Halloween, in between & bunnies too! You did great girl, but I can understand the feeling "overwhelmed" with all there to choose from. I've done that myself & then kicked myself when I got home for not buying this or that! Can't wait to go look at your post #2! |

| I see you use a "hip purse" for sales too, just like ME! They are so much easier, lets you have both hands free to look at things & pay for them!!! |

| I feel the adrenalin! I can see myself rushing from one place to another! I love it all, the plates and candlesticks are fabulous. I am not even going to post my CTS stuff after seeing the prices you paid. I bought the glass pumpkin there for 1.99 OK, on to part 2! |
