Camera purse:  $3
Mermaid purse:  $2

Both @ Winners

They're for kids and barely hold anything, but I thought they were cute for the price.

Plush mermaid blanket:  $5 @ Bluenotes (RSP:  $29.99)

I thought these were neat, but I didn't want to pay that much.

This was  totally what I wanted to pay!  I saw that it was only $3 on the website, but you had to pay $5 for shipping. 

I didn't know if they'd offer free shipping before it was sold out so I decided to take the plunge.

Nautical candles:  $1.25 each @ Dollar Giant

Finally!  I've seen these in the US for months, but this is the first time I've seen them here.  They're really cute and nice for the price.

Pearlescent white mermaid soap dish:  $4.99
Set of 4 victorian cherub print coasters in a tin:  $.99

Both @ Value Village

That mermaid caught my eye right away!  I loved her pose and expression...she seemed so flirty and carefree.  I thought she'd be an amazing display piece.  She's around 7 inches tall and 6 inches wide.


Most statuettes I see are horribly carved with super ugly faces, so this was a nice surprise.  This is so nicely sculpted!  She even has nipples.

But....I'm so mad.  When I got home, I accidentally dropped the bag...her head broke off!  I glued it back on, but you can still see the damage:


It still looks alright from far away, but up close it's so crappy.  I really wish I was more careful, I already wrapped it in clothing but I didn't expect it to fall out.  

I'll just see if I can replace it later on.  I've seen them sell for $20+ online!  A lot of them are painted too, which I think makes them look super ugly.  

The coasters were an afterthought.  I almost put them back, but I thought the image was worth $1.  2 of the coasters are pretty used, but the other half are fine.
