Five Below

I look at Five Below sort of like a well organized thrift store – there are scores galore here if only you look.
To give you an idea of what I mean, here’s a list of some of my finds:
1) A wooden mancala set
2) iPod cases and running armbands (at $ 5 a dramatic discount from the suggested retail prices upwards of $ 30)
3) iPod portable speaker (picnics in the park just got way more awesome!)
4) silicone shells for Wii gear (again, not worth paying retail for)
5) graph paper
6) colored pencils
7) Hard Candy eyeshadow
8) Xmas cards with greeting «Happy Bday Baby J» in gothic lettering across a decidedly gully infant Jesus – needless to say this was in the mailbox of everyone I ever met
9) slipper socks
10) travel toiletries
11) Andy Warhol stationery set
12) puzzles for rainy days down the shore
13) toys like Lego sets and stuffed animals for charity toy drives
14) candy stockpiles for Halloween and Easter
15) sewing caddy
16) other things I can’t remember right now
My one complaint is that I really wish they’d bring back their frequent shopper card because I was super close to getting my free gift. GRR.
