Old becomes New again




The set I received had cards from 6 different sets, there were many that were the same but that is why they call them trading cards. Now a little story. When my son was younger he was really into Pokemon. Recently we needed money and my husband didn't think his and our son's cards would be worth much so he sold them rather cheaply on another site to find out two months later the same set in worse condition then our set was going for upwards of 2,000 plus dollars. His would have gotten about 3,000. I am not even going to tell you how cheap he sold them, lets just say the person got a great deal.

It was a case of should have waited a bit longer, but this also got my husband into collecting all over again. This set will help with that, the extra's will be traded for other cards, and the excess of cards will be given to our children to play with.

The online cards are very different from what my son grew up so I am excited to see what this all about and the extra cards from Golden Groundhog add another dimension to the game. I wonder if my son even remembers how to play? He went from Pokemon cards to being a Magician. At 25 I think he is long over Pokemon and onto building his own family.

This is a great set for new and old Pokemon card collectors alike, or even for those who just like to play the game.

You can find this Pokemon set on Amazon.

Shopkins Compatible Carrying Case




Our children have asked for Shopkins but to be honest we haven't bought them any yet. Why? Because I see them as a passing phase, and they are quite expensive if you ask me. We have however agreed on the girls watching the shopkins unboxings that are on YouTube.

Even though this is box is slotted for Shopkins fitting both the little hand shopping baskets as well as other shopkin products, we found that this works great for their beads, and of course silly band sorting.

I really like all of the spots for organizing little things that children like to play with. I would have loved this to organize my shoes for my dolls growing up.

You can find this case on Amazon.


What Cornucopia Brands has to say about their product.

This case easily transports and holds in place hundreds of Shopkins TM for fun on the go and protecting your child from loosing the small collectibles. The case has 16 pre-molded sections that require no assembly. The lid's lock closure means that all figures remain in place. The case is made of sturdy molded plastic and the outer sticker is water resistant that easily wipes clean. The case measures 13 x 10.5 x 2 so it fits perfectly in a standard backpack or tote or can simply be carried by the attached handle. Case DOES NOT include Shopkins TM figure characters, baskets or bags.
