Got the inflatable turkey two weeks ago. My husband and I inflated it and then kind of looked at each other with a "Now what?" expression. That's when I decided to start the turkey war by placing the inflated turkey underneath the covers of my sister's bed.

The turkey has now made appearances in the shower, clothes dryer, bicycle basket and fridge. I'm afraid of where it may be right now.

This is my first mystery sale and I thought it was fun. Trust me when I say that I've spent $10 on worse things so I'm not bothered it wasn't something that I normally wouldn't purchase. I do agree that it would be nice if there were a variety of silly things rather than just one set prize per sale.

What's horrible about these is that the cone always is stale by the time it goes through the cooking process. Trying to eat the cone is like pulling on rubber.

Too be fair to the girls: Women play hurling as well. It goes by the name of camogie.

Thought I'd throw in my two cents as I go specifically to TJ's for:

-Pesto Sauce

-Mediterranean Hummus Dip (make sure it's the one with the pine nuts on the top)

Their rosemary bread is really good as well as the chicken teriaki frozen dinner bowl.
