Last Night's Auction Purchase

 Maybe there's more. But the only picture Hick sent me was this:

 
He paid $23 for this candy dispenser. I don't know the going rate for candy dispensers, but I would have preferred one filled with candy! Even if it WAS auction candy.

No, that is NOT Hick sitting in the background. Hick's feet aren't that big. Besides, how could he take the picture while he was sitting way over there? 

Hick is not known for the careful framing of his photographs. But he IS known for getting bargains at the auction.

  1. Sounds like a deal! Will he fill it with candy and make you and the Pony pay for a treat?

    1. Let's not put this out there for Hick to pick up telepathically! He sure doesn't read this blog. He has become a penny-pincher when it comes to OTHERS spending money from the general fund.

      He complained that I bought lunch at Dairy Queen for myself and The Pony for $17. I had the 2-for-$4 chicken strips and pretzel sticks, and The Pony had a half-pound Flamethrower Burger combo with onion rings and Sprite.

      "You can't be doing that! NO burger should cost that much! My two-cheeseburger meal at McDonald's is $9 now!" Said the man who just returned from a $3000 vacation, including a $195 speeding ticket...

  2. I'll pay $25, does he ship for free?

    1. Wow! You're giving Hick 4X the standard 50-cent profit he requires to make a sale! He might DRIVE it to you for the cost of a speeding ticket (if he gets one).

  3. A gumball machine! We used to have mini ones for the kids and after the not-so-nice mini gumballs were gone they filled them with M&Ms.

    1. This one looks like it would hold the BIG gumballs! Or walnuts, or those clear plastic toy holder thingies.

    1. It would cost more to fill with peanuts than it would to buy a flip house! Heh, heh! Hick would like to get his hands on other men's junk!
