yes, i was saddened when the goodwill closed. it was a good source of strange microwave recipe books, and t-shirts that say "i love sheep" on the front, and "sheep love me" on the back. but i was incredibly excited to see a dollarama moving into the vacant store.
because it's not one of those dollar stores where some things are a dollar, some things are $1.50, and so on.
no.
everything in the store is one dollar. the only drawback is that they never take debit, so you have to curb your spending to cash on hand. anyway, we went to get some decorations for le petit noel (more on this later), and decided to get The Smudge an early present:
the cat toy glove! could there be a smarter invention? from each finger dangles a tantalizing cat toy!
at first it seemed like he loved it. but within seconds, the mice were tangled, and there was an early casualty:
since then, i've found him dragging the entire tangled mess into the bathroom, and chewing on the broken string.

that's hilarious. you should do a whole recurring segment on your blog where you review strange cat toys. smudge will be a celebrity!
lol that's a good idea. i suppose i should have known how it would turn out, judging by how interested the cats on the package look. perhaps we will review his xmas presents as well.
my cat loved the toy as well, on my hand as well as off, I am a manager at a dollarama store, just a heads up-there are debit machines coming to the dollarama stores, it just will take a few months since there are over 500 stores now, plus another 400 opening within the next 4 years! Keep your eye open for those handy swippers!
cool! at the same time, i wonder if having to bring cash doesn't curb my dollar store spending habit from getting out of control...
