Savers Pony Find
« on: August 01, 2018, 06:08:35 PM »
My husband went to the US for a week on his own to work on a computer crisis and stopped at Savers on one of his outtings. As is the norm, he swing by the toy section, even though I wasn't there and I'm the one who likes to swing by. He sends me a picture on WhatsApp of a small bag of popcorn is and a audio message following asking if any of them were the correct pony (any G1 and G3 ponies). It looked to me that one of them were and so I told him to buy that bag.

A minute later he sends another audio message saying he found more. I ask if they have any resemblance to the ones I told him to buy and his response was a flurry of pictures, each showing a different bag of ponies.

Some I didn't want as they were nothing but Fakies and after a couple of minutes try to explain that I didn't want the hot pink one, I got a lengthy video in return. He held up each bag and gave it a number then told me to tell him which numbers I wanted.

In the end he spent $20 on just ponies at $2.99 a bag. I didn't have him get them all either. It figures that any time I go up, there's hardly a pony to be found. But my husband goes up and he hits the mother load.

So without further ado, my 18 new ponies!

And yes, I about jumped on the bed when I found a G1 hiding in one of the bags.

Wow! Usually, our sort of savers stores don’t have any pony at all. You must have a very wonderful husband if he got all this from there. A lucky one too...congrats!
