Awesome find! The other day I ran across the Picnic time set with the original ladybug! I nearly had a cow right there in the store! What kind of store did you find them in?

cool find. I found 4 ladybug picnic sets like three weeks ago at K Bees (I'm blanking out how to spell that store), $15 each. Also other old sets that are available at the Hasbro site. They also had a ton of those carrying cases with a white lamb and a shimmery greenish purple iguana on sale for $8 something. We happened to stop there while we were out of town.

Thanks y'all!
My second thought, AFTER "WOW WOW WOW WOW WHOOOOO PEEEE", was "I can't WAIT to tell the Board!"
I actually found teh set at a Walgreens, of all places.
Jennifer, do you need both pets? Or are you still looking for just the bumblebee?
WAY TO GO on the Picnic Time sets...for THOSE BABIES...I would have screamed AND jumped up and down in the store!!! Our K-B closed last Christmas, but there is an outlet about 45 minutes from me...wonder if it's worth a trip?

I hardly go there but I would think it would be considered a K-B outlet. |

Ahh, the thought of standing at an old junky place for hours to buy pieces of plastic. You can only imagine the thrill of standing at a new place here in Redneck Country, or at least speaking to a human being. (a.k.a.- Waycross, Ga. Better known as the place with almost NO CIVILIZATION!)
