    Just treated myself to this “ Snoopy” Halloween ornament for 11.91 plus p&p on Amazon.
    It retailed at $24.99 ( roughly €22.50) when it was released last year. It’s the cheapest I’ve seen it since last July. No import taxes either which I always try to avoid paying!

    Thanks, that's gorgeous and particularly given that the original big bird puppeteer passed away recently. Ordered it.

    My husband keeps telling me that I had a deprived childhood not having BBC, but at least we had Sesame St. I loved " The Count" :)

    I was trying to explain to my daughter that the TV we had when I was her age had 8 channel buttons on the top and you had to go up and press one when you wanted to change channel.

    She looked at me like I had two heads :D

    I liked the count and Oscar but had a soft spot for Cookie Monster.

    Same puppeteer as Big bird, Carroll Spinney. RIP

    Funeral was at the weekend, I saw clips on Factbook. Cried my eyes out

    Mine came today. Half tempted to leave it out year round on a shelf as it's quite big and not especially festive. But then again it would be magic (and huge) on the tree...

    Caranica, only saw your reply today. I'm kinda just popping in now and again for a browse so hadn't checked this thread. Oh that's cool that you got your " BigBird," :) To be honest when it's on the tree with the other festive items, you don't think about it not being a " Christmasy" item. I thought it looked great, then again I have a mish-mash of everything on my tree.


    I did my first bit of Christmas shopping today and picked this Lottie stable up from Arnotts today. It was on sale for €21 reduced from €70. Think it was last one left.

    Just a heads up but there have been a few nice bargains on Amazon.com lately regarding Hallnark ornaments. Prices fluctuate sometimes up to silly prices but I have seen a few nice ornaments drop to around the 7/8$ mark that retailed between $16 and$22 when they came out. A good way to pass the time while the corona virus limits shopping trips ;)

    Forget stockpiling toilet paper, and stockpile christmas ornaments instead :D
