...Not a Brag...Yet...Cross Your Fingers for Me! UPDATE: I WON!!!

[LittleSpiffy]

Oh, this way premature, but I just HAD to day something!  Probably not the right forum for it, but here goes:

I found something.

It's online.

It is a pony related item that I had as a child and loved, loved, loved!  It's not considered valuable, but I have never found it in all my years of collecting...until today.  It is the ONE THING I wish I had never ever gotten rid of.

Please cross your fingers for me!

uh-oh ... I WANNA KNOW! lol

*crosses all fingers and toes and legs and arms and thumbs and big toes*

good luck!

[Tinks]

Ahhh I can't take the suspense!!!!! xxxx

[snwbear24]

I want to know!!

[achab1984]

What is it?

[LittleSpiffy]

It's a book....I shall say no more   

[kiwimlp]

Sounds interesting.  Make sure you update your thread title once you let us know what it is

[Flitter]

I hope you get it! *fingers crossed*

[LittleSpiffy]

Just a few more days to go!  No one has placed a big yet!  I think I may cry if I win this (I know that's silly, but it has to be one of my all-time favorite pony items!)

I'm so curious! I don't do Ebay so you can show me   

[LittleSpiffy]

I won! I won! I was the only bidder!

Okay, so what did I want ever-so-badly?

The Diamond Sticker Book that promoted the MLP Movie!!

Original retail price: $0.39

I remember, when my mom bought it for me, she said: "I'll get this for you, but I'm not buying all of those stickers!" lol
I spent SO many hours using the red decoder to "read" this book.  I took it everywhere with me.  Even when I was older (too old for the target audience of the book), I'd pull it off the shelf to reminisce.

I remember when the decoder was so worn out that it just fell apart one day.  It was accidentally thrown away, but my mom helped me find red cellophane so I could still use the book.

I was also convinced by the ad on the back that I NEEDED that Flutter Pony messenger bag (or collapsible luggage as they call it).  The thing was, by the time I figured out that I must have that bag, the mail order promo was long over (like, years and years, hahaha).  I still have never seen either of those bags for sale.

I am just so darn happy...and it's my birthday on Monday, so it's the perfect excuse for me to indulge myself!

...and, by the way, I have no need for that Jem book.  I'd be happy to sell or trade it to someone
