This looks like the best deal of the week at Kmart … of course, if you live near my Kmart’s … not so much on the actual choices … Please, for the love that is holy and plasticky, please take these off our hands … (Toys R Us) Um, really? Okay, I guess if you […]

Walmart apparently has a new strategy … we’ll order a bunch of stuff, we’ll make sure it’s shipped to us first and then we’ll stack it sky high in gardening and cover it with a tarp. I’m not exactly sure this is a money making strategy but it is a strategy. Humm, what could be […]

We’ll take 100,000 of these and mark them all down to breakeven what we paid for them so we can’t make a dime on them! That’ll show ’em! Don’t […]

Of course, this is the WOC playmat but if you guessed or said, man – wouldn’t life be grand if we had a STORYTELLERS playmat? Your greatest wishes have been granted – I don’t actually have a photo of it so you’ll have to use your imagination and merge the artwork from here with the […]
