Biggest bargain of all time..



Just wanted to pop in say Hi and show you the biggest bargain of all time.
You know when you don't need something, and kids certainly don't need more toys, especially just after christmas, but when it is soo cheap you just have to buy it. Well this was the case. I nearly got harry a pirate ship for xmas, and couldnt find one I liked, so thought maybe for his birthday which is in April. So here we were in KMart over the weekend when I spot this big hummer , that is $10, I thought ow bargain, and then read the big yellow sticker on it, which explained the remote and its front wheel were missing, so as i put it back Harry goes cool pirates, i want this. So I look at it and think cool, how much?? what only $5.00. You have to be kidding, so I look at the yellow sticker and it says damaged box and some staining on toy. I thought whatever looks ok to me. So Harry has been getting a bit of pocket money as incentive to clean his toys up, get dressed and go to bed when asked. Only $2 a week or so, and it is a hard concept as a week is a long time etc, but it is gettin ghim into the idea. He also has heaps of change as mark used to give him his change out of his pockets after work. So He has been allowed to buy 2 things recently with his own money. So we said it was his pocket money.
But it is awesome, can't find any "staining". The ship makes noises and 1 of the walls also makes noises, like a cannon and seagulls. There is an octopus, shark, parrot, crocodile, 4 men, a little paddle boat with paddles, canon with balls and 2 fortress walls. What a find. here is H enjoying his cheap shit toy, hehe.
Ok gotta go do a bit of grocery shopping, going to try some new recipes in the slow cooker this week.

Stay well. Kaz
