  The store you describe sounds a lot like Peter Jones in England.

The owner of Davey Jones locker perhaps ?
David Jones is our upmarket department store chain, only in the better
suburbs of course.

What to spend this on...hmmm new socks ? Underwear ? Something for the home ?
That's correct Lego, the perfect homeware.

  LEGO cookware wouldn't get you too far.  LEGO socks and undies?
  Yeowch!

If you wander around in the sun, they eventually turn yellow, or so I'm told.

Interesting result of transaction at DJs...
Bionicle Mask packs at ...$3.95, bbuuttt, bbutt GBs have them at $1.95.
Price matching ensues so DJs price is $1.95.

  Are the Mask packs really as cool as people suggest?  I can't see
  the masks through the baggie (logically)--well, in Europe I couldn't.
  I still can't, given that I'm many thousands of miles farther away
  now.

I'll tell you after I get an infected one...hopefully.
I'm sizing up getting the Belville dolls to wear the masks, just have to embed
some Technic bits in their heads.

We did buy a telescope to view our little red friend as well, not just Bios.

  And what does this Dotty person have to say about that?  =:o
  Sorry, crass American loose in the newsgroup!  (But...but...I
  want to help the numbers!  :) )
