I know to stay away from EBAY even at this time of year. They ALWAYS have Halloween stuff on there.
SO I fell prey.....I mean how can a Halloween enthusiast such as myself "Just Look" & not buy something. I swore I would behave after what I spent for supplies to participate in the Coffin Contest.
Needless to say I indulged I mean how could I possibly pass up these good deals especially on some things I have been looking for.
I bought that skull punch bowl that has the skull cups that hang around the rim & a ladle that matches. All season long I did not want to pay much for that as I knew it was cute but none the less it was plastic.
I got one of those fright night lanturns that is creeped out for halloween & has a flicker bulb in it. Been wanting one of those ever since they came out and yipee.......I got a good deal on this one.
I was bidding on things from the same buyer so I bid on her set....a snake, a bowl of eyeballs & a rubber brain. I could use that for my spell & potion table.
Today I got a costume she posted, a witches black cloak that has one of those high stand up collars.
Tomorrow is the last auction its a set of 3 masks, well ya never can have enough masks.
So thats my fix for the merry month of May. Most people are out at the garden centers buying plants for their gardens & flowers........ME??? I'm buying the snakes!!hehe
Whats everybody else been buying?

You know, Muffy, it's terribly rude to talk of such spoils and not post links. You know your friends here are a very visual people...

Oh Muffy, Muffy, Muffy...now you must toil all the harder behind the chocolate pot to pay for all these spoils. But in your case, work couldn't be sweeter.

I love your snake. He would be great in my desert scene for this year's Haunted Hoedown. I picked up a vinyl tablecloth with pumpkins on it, and a string of skeleton lights (they flash a green light) at a garage sale on Friday each for 50 cents. Sorry, no pics. I'm having trouble getting my stuff from Photobucket to the forum. Good finds you got there.

Great finds!
I've started to shop. This is the perfect time of year for shopping on eBay. Most people are just getting rid of things in spring cleaning and there isn't much competition, so the prices stay down.

Well guys......I had one hour till closing bids on the masks & guess what......I forgot all about it!! Oh well got some things I was wanting anyway. Funny thing is when this gal posted all her stuff the 1 st item I bid on was this great looking head full of blood w/ a giant fish hook thru it...I forgot about that auction & lost that....then I bid on this lot of 3 masks she had & lost that. I swear I can't remember anything anymore!!!lol
Relax Herman Relax!! lol

Great finds Muffy! I have that lantern and I love it. I avoid eBay cause I'll get in trouble.
Here's what the lantern looked like when I had it out.
Purely and simply evil
