And after this little excersise, I have to say that I didn't realise the el cheapo store could be so kinky! The very worst things I found were a set of plastic glow in the dark cocktail stirrers which had long legs in high heels kicking off the ends and also (in the kids section!) plastic glow in the dark handcuffs. And if your relationship happens to be going well after your nights of glow in the dark fun, you could also break the bank and spend $4 on a three tiered wedding veil. I'm just a little sad it wasn't glow in the dark as well.skape7https://www.blogger.com/profile/17174539427494270037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3995876652383238082.post-35779169842911014702007-09-16T12:08:00.000-07:002007-09-16T12:08:00.000-07:00erm, sorry about that typo.

I had on khaki capris, and the only other color was black. Those were the ugliest shoes I've ever had on my feet, but they saved the day, cheaply! People stared but I didn't care; I was just glad my feet stopped hurting.<BR/><BR/>I don't understand people who won't shop at a dollar store. I buy all of my cleaning products and pet food at Dollar General, and anything else that I buy routinely when they have the same brand, because it's WAY cheaper. Why would I pay $6 for laundry detergent at the grocery store, when I can get the same brand for $2.50 at Dollar General? I buy Purina Cat Chow for $2.00. $1.50 for Herbal Essence shampoo and conditioner. A girl's gotta save when she's walking around in her mock Crocs.LizLSBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13353222996536740662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3995876652383238082.post-70435304844035499972007-09-13T09:19:00.000-07:002007-09-13T09:19:00.000-07:00I took a picture of my "find" but forgot that I ha...I took a picture of my "find" but forgot that I had no way to post it since I don't have a blog. It is a musical, light-up American flag tie that I bought as a joke for my husband to wear to work. Perhaps I will email the picture to you, Crabmommy.
