Oh yes @alice. And so much Halloween candy available now.

I'll bet Mexico is still making lots of Trump pinatas. Doubly delicious.
in reply to Katherine Bond

I’m sure I can find them in the U.S. too. That would take care of my need to beat something vile.

OMG!! What a good line of thinking on a way to release frustration.

Placebo placenta placemats would add a festive touch to a baby shower. 😉
RIP Pier 1 Imports from a few years back too. Long Live Harbor Freight.
in reply to Katherine Bond

The closest I can get to Harbor Freight is Farm and Fleet. Probably same stuff.

Five Below has moved into the locations previously occupied by Party City around here.
in reply to Katherine Bond

We do have a Five Below. Haven’t gone in it yet. Is it the cost or the temperature?
in reply to Katherine Bond

I haven't been there either. Their theme seems to be items from $1 to $5.
in reply to Katherine Bond

Can't you string up some of your politicians and beat a few colours of shit out of them?
in reply to Donna McClure

@Donna McClure
It's a growing new chain dedicated to what the dimestore used to be, supplanted by the dollar store, and now $5 is worth a dime because Five Below supposedly sells things under 5 dollars. Yeah, that didn't last long either.
in reply to Katherine Bond

Thanks @Radio Free Trumpistan. We do have Dollar stores in the area but I rarely shop there. The one in town where I am has had, in the past, long lines, one checker with people lined up with multiple items! Standing in line to spend a dollar on something is not my idea of fun!!
in reply to Donna McClure

@Donna McClure
They've basically become PoS vendors selling you for a dollar what they go for pennies. Dollar General excepted, I must say, as well as Five Below. Beware a shit-vendor called Ollies, though. The sweat shop slave labor industry is doing well, clearly.
in reply to Katherine Bond

There are some bargains at the dollar store but for the most part they do not have merchandise I want or need.

I came home from Five Below with three 3' skeletons this afternoon. Unfortunately, I think they are a little too large to ride the flamingoes. I also got my Covid shot at the pharmacy while I was out (that was the main reason for going out of the house).
in reply to Katherine Bond

Score on both things @Brian Fitzgerald. If they were cheap enough, maybe you can find a smaller flamingo rider.

I’m looking forward to your tableau.

in reply to Katherine Bond

I'm not quite sure what I'm going to do now. They may end up crouching or kneeling under the cherry tree. Nothing is certain.
in reply to Katherine Bond

Three skeletons is enough for the GF walking with distracted BF meme. Mrs F may object though. Mustn't rush.

Adding pointy hats and a cauldron would make the three witches of Macbeth possible.
in reply to Katherine Bond

I wish I had some little green derby hats and swallowtail coats for leprechauns.
