sticks.
People who are selling things can be holding samples of their wares, while
people buying them could be holding up coins.

(pitchforks, hoes, rakes), plenty of ideas for sets (Barn,
Tractor/Combine, Farmhouse, etc) The problem is, would it sell? Do kids
still like tractors and horses and cows and stuff?
