Something told me to today to go to my local Goodwill store. As I approached the doors I noticed two signs that stated 50% off all toys.

I shop at this Goodwill a lot and they never have 50% off sales on toys. Usually their toys are pretty overpriced.

Today I found shelves and shelves full of toys, all marked at $2 or less.

I got 11 items for my grandson at $1.06 before the 1/2 off, 2 items at $2.06 before half off and 4 items at $.76 before half off. I even got one item that was marked at $4.06 before the 50% off.

All girls hairbows and hair accessories where also marked down to half off. When I questioned the cashier, she was very vague in her responses and wouldn't say anything at all that could explain why this store was practically giving it's toys away.

They had a Power Wheels Barbie Jeep marked at $20. If I didn't have a grandson but a granddaughter, I would have got that.

I'm going to have to check the other store in our area. I hope this isn't a sign of things to come. I did get quite a bit, but heck, he's just a 6 month old baby. He's going to outgrow these toys quickly.

I guess Goodwill isn't going to take any chances with the new law. I'll keep you updated on what else I discover.
