In Patchogue I had his overwhelming urge to go to this Goodwill on Main Street. Good thing I did. I got 35 refills for my Xyron 500 and

250 for $5.00, they were going to throw them out and I wimpered. I said no. He said for $5 you can have them all. I just missed Sizzilets by 2 minutes as he said he 100 of them (in the cases and full alphabets) and he sold them for a $1 as he said "they are useless." I gave him my phone number and my sister said she would go there if he has anything scrapbooking and front the money.

Good grief, two minutes.

What a great bargain! And they ARE pretty useless to a lot of the folks who shop at goodwill - if you don't have the money for crafty toys, you're not going to need their accessories! But it was a good bargain for you. (and for whoever snatched up the sizzlets!)
