    Went out to pick up a new cellphone.

    While at the shopping center, walked past a Winners HomeSense and saw gargoyles and celtic crosses. They are all made with finely detailed hard plaster. Nice and heavy, and clearly made to last through high winds and inclement weather.

    You can see the gargoyle here (it's a slide show). The things are about 3' tall:

    The crosses were $20; picked up seven of them. Although the gargoyles were $60, I found a store manager and pointed out a couple of minor chips. She took $15 off the price tag and I bought two of them.

    Nice adds.

    Good times.

    Notice you live in Quebec, as well, WickedBB. And so it goes in Canada, it's always tough to find quality Halloween stuff. That's why this find was so great. Hopefully, your HomeSense is carrying the same stuff.

    I've already gone back into the garage a couple of times to look at the gargoyles again. As sweet&sinister notes, they are huge. They are also heavy.

    Man, I am beside myself with this purchase...I even said to hell with storage concerns, I had to have them.

    Yeeeeehaaaaaaaaaa...lloween!

    Actually I saw the same stuff at Winners in Vernon, BC back in the middle of August, so hopefully they won't be too hard to find in Canada. I had forgotten about them.
