Wow Minnie!
What great deals!
I'll have to check out my dollar stores here in Alabama. I did find some nice goodies at Dollar General the other day - since I'm into Altered Books, I am on the lookout for all kinds of embellishments. They had some awesome bracelets and necklace/earring sets for a buck each - each had several different charms, many beads, all kinds of cool dangly stuff that I can use by disassembing them! Also found a large sheet of stick-on earrings for little girls - real neat shiny "gems" that will be great for embellishing.
Thanks for the heads-up, Minnie. You always find the greatest bargains!

Another place to get great big beads is to look in the hair section where the pony tail ties are etc. I got some great ones made by Jordache that were giant jewel shapes etc. Nice for hanging on the bottom of an ornament. they were pony tail ties a piece of elastic with a bead on each end. for $1 it amounted to about 16 beads.

Thank you everyone so much for the nice comments! Trailrunner, you have a much nicer fence to start with and those planters are lovely. Houstonmom, thank you for clearing up that little mystery! Yayagal, I have two brown and white ragdoll cats and I'm glad you like them. I am going to be filling the space in more as time goes by, and try my hand at planting perennials. If I kill them, I can get rid of the evidence real fast!

Wow. I found it online and saw more photos of it. The house is gorgeous. The price reduced to $5,295,000 is anyone is interested. :) I peeked in the rest of your album (was I not supposed to do that?) and remember coming across your gorgeous kitchen before. Did you ever find a cover for the toe kick heater? What does it look like and where did you find it? Thanks!

'Time Check' on the store's PA means it's time to get OUT

But what are the odds that whoever's in charge of the PA will have the state of mind to use that code instead of saying something like "GET OUT GET OUT THERE'S A BOMB RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!!" But to be serious, why even use the PA system to use that 12:00 code--if all the employees know what it means, they're splitting. I wouldn't count on many hourly-rate people nowadays to do their jobs--making sure all the customers get out in an orderly fashion, too.

I work at a grocery store and as you know they carry much more than just groceries now... After mid summer they started marking down summer stuff. I got a popup screened in "house" enough for a table and couple of chairs for my DD and her DH. Was over 50.00 got it for 7.50. They love to go camping and it will be great for shaded/bug free hanging out and for the dogs too. I also got them a BIG umbrella for the patio table, for 10.00. They will be surprised and happy come next summer. Those were the big buys for them. I got a bunch of other things, a set of tupperware(told me at Thanksgiving they don't have lids anymore for what they have) they all snap together for space saving. Got 28 piece set for 8.00. Regular price was 19.99. Stuff like that. Practical but good buys. Got a good friend a really cute iron ware decorated piece. She likes yard art stuff and she can hang this outside. It was 15.00. got it for 3.00. Really pretty piece. So check out your grocery stores come seasonal change.... you will find some good bargains!

Wow. I just saw the stamp art papers on ebay. Maybe she bought it at the same store you did. She is listing 10 packs for around $10 including shipping andhandling. I might just buy it there as it saves gas
