Paul’s in love with these solar patio accent lights, probably because he’s charmed by Edison bulbs, which these resemble. Dual COB strips inside a glass bulb are powered by a solar cell in the base. The bulb and cell hang upside down in a 6-1/2” tall x 5” black wire cage, like work lights, with a handle. Has a sensor for auto shut-off plus a main switch. Picture a series of them hung from a wire over your deck, across your back yard or at your campsite, with no outlet needed. They also look good sitting on a table.

Santa and Tiny Tim? No. Rudolph, maybe? Not a chance. These are the delightful characters from The Nightmare Before Christmas, 2-1/2” tall hard rubber figures including Jack Skellington, Sally, Zero, Mayor, Oogie Boogie, Lock, Shock, Barrel, Scary Teddy and more. They’re all on 1” chains with a split ring, and we’ll pick (1) for you because then opening the package will be more like Christmas morning (but still the nightmare before). No one knows what you’ll get in this blind pack because the surplus gods will be choosing, not us.

Squash the cup when you’re done, and put it in your pocket to use again later. Holds 10 oz and stands 5” tall x 3-1/4” dia at the top. Push on its head and watch it sink to just half its size. We’ll send you one in white and aqua, navy, red or lime green to match your eyes.

Made to strap onto the headrests in your car, this super-squishy pillow puts those airplane neck thingies to shame.

It comes with a pair of "AAA" batteries because we care. 

Our smallest leather-type-person multitool is made to hang on your keychain, and we know that because it has a 1-1/4” carabiner attached to it.

Glasses have that bulge near the top for better grip, and you’ll get (1) each with a purple python, an orange python, a red and blue rattler, and a nice green and red garter snake.

With a taste for tarpaulins. These thick plastic tarp clips are the best we’ve seen, tooth-gripping-wise. Measure 2-1/2” long x 1” wide with 1/2” ID eye-hook, and have toothed 7/32” jaws that grab on as tight as an angry toddler via an adjustable locking clutch. Unlike a toddler, though, these have an easy, push-button release, and they won’t tear a hole in your tarp.

These assorted colored balloons come in packs of (25), and they should inflate to approx 9", which in our eyes is the perfect size for a balloon. You’ll get (3) packs for a total of (75) balloons. In case you forgot, balloons don’t go bad, so it’s always a good idea to have a supply on hand.

Even if you're not a female flamingo yourself, you can still hatch an adorable hot pink flamingo. You’ll get an equally hot pink, 4-1/4" egg, which you immerse in water and wait a couple-three days while it hatches and grows to 8”+ tall. But the fun doesn’t stop there. Take Pinky out of the water and he or she will shrink back to egg-size and regrow endless times. (The egg, however, will be history.)
