halloween comes to dollarama


There's something about the arrival of Halloween merchandise at my local dollar store that warms my heart.






Although there is a rather disturbing emphasis on severed limbs this year . . .

I'll say! What the heck is up with all those severed limbs? Apparently those designers have been watching far too many slasher flicks.

Wow....I would have a field day there for future displays!

...severed body parts are far more interesting to me when they are real. :D Just kidding, big kidder. I agree I really don't get the bloody look.

But they are Halloween decorations, so I am happy regardless. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers!

Whoa, I don't think we ever get severed limbs at my dollar store. I can't put my finger on why though. I better head on over and see. Could come in hand-y.


Foot. Sorry, couldn't figure out how to work that one in.

I used to buy loads of Halloween decorations in a dollarama in Montreal.

God, no kidding -- limbs aplenty! Still... HURRAY! It's on its way!

Our dollar store has some great stuff too. I went to Michaels today. Big mistake, although I did manage to get out having only spent $14. Not bad with all the Halloween out.

Ha...I just now today, figured out your post here from yesterday. I mean I knew about the limbs and all. But what I couldn't understand was why the Doll store would have Halloween merchandise, much less severed limbs...ha! Now today I see the title and I realize that it wasn't a Doll-a-rama, but rather a Dollar-ama...ha ha! Now I'm not quite as worried about the proprietors as I was yesterday. :o)

Heheheh! Funny, I never thought of how it could be misinterpreted. :)

I can't wait to check out the local dollar store here in town. Woohoo! I hope there is some good stuff there this year.

Halloween Blues, you could have said you were going to "beat feet over to the Doll-A-Rama".

I haven't checked our dollar store yet, I better beat feet over there and check it out. lol

For all the crap-tacular items a dollar store has, there is always one or two keepers to be found! Happy hunting!
