All @ Value Village.

I really wasn't expecting much from the 75% off sale (especially since I didn't go early), but to my surprise, almost everything from before Halloween was still there!

I didn't buy any costumes because they're always such crappy quality.  I'd feel dumpy wearing them.  The above I'd actually wear in real life...they're gorgeous!  Especially that belt. 

They all look like normal quality, which is probably why they were priced so high.  I actually found a picture of it on their website:


I also thought about buying this paper/wood geisha umbrella - it was only $2.50!


I thought it was actually really nice quality for a costume piece, but the illustration could have been better.  In the end, I didn't think I would use it.  Ditto with those pearl gloves in blue (they were so gorgeous).  Go me!  Getting marginally better with money.
 
I don't collect Polly Pockets, but the bag had at least ten pair of shoes that fit minis (no other company makes them, that I know of).  I saw that those accessory sets retail for around $30, so I feel like I got a steal!  The one I saw only had 4 shoes too.

Those things are so tiny, kudos to the kid who managed to keep them all together!

As for the My Scene doll...I just wanted the boots.  They're pearlescent and so pretty!

I grappled with paying $2 when that was the only thing I wanted, but in the end, I decided to get them.  Turns out someone else was willing to pay $6 for the boots alone, so I feel way better about it!
