Okay so I got my pell grant check and paycheck last week totally up to around $1060, and since the only thing substantial that currently comes out of my bank account stash is my phone bill every month, I decided to spoil myself a little bit and headed over to ebay, and got a few fantabulous BSC items if I do say so myself.
First off, I got six of the mysteries... I can't remember which ones, other than I didn't have them, and some of them I haven't read. I had lost a bid on a lot of 9, but the six will do.
Secondly, got 16 Little Sister books, ranging from #2- #96.
Thirdly, the one I'm MOST pleased with because I could still get those books on ebook form, I got BOTH BSC board games for 99 cents, plus S&H coming to a total of about $6. I only had the mystery game years ago, and the seller has excellent references, and the games look in great condition, I can't wait!
I also got a Wendy Corsi Staub book. I love her mysteries/thrillers, but I can't remember which one I got... I THINK it's The Last to Know, but I'm not sure... I just know it's one I haven't read yet.
Lastly, I got a book that I had loved when I was younger. It's called "What's the Opposite of a Best Friend?" A few months ago I couldn't remember for the life of me what the name of the book was... all I knew was that it had a character named Stacy (without an E) in it, and she wasn't even the main character... I couldn't remember the name of the narrator... all I could remember was the plot line, and the cover. I started searching through a thread on the BSC proboard site about our favorite books when we were younger, wondering if there was a chance that someone would mention it and it would ring a bell... and voila, someone did, I did a quick search on amazon to see if it was the book, and there it was.
On another note, I've become obsessed with watching Survivor on youtube, and as I was watching Survivor 7: Pearl Islands (Where Rupert made his debut! He's awesome), I couldn't help but think Christa reminded me of Dawn... in looks... and both from California.
Yay? Nay? She and a bunch of other "survivors" are kind enough to add fans to their facebook friend pages... so far I have her Rupert and Stephenie from Palau and Guatemala on there.

She does look like Dawn.
Also just wanted to say that I used to totally order stuff from eBay by the cartful. I usually get my BSC fix from the library, or from amazon.com now--even though you can't combine shipping, there are some really cheap books there.
I never got into Survivor. You can watch it on You Tube?
Hey! Thanks for becoming a follower of my blog. I am honored! Truly..
Lol, you're welcome... I try and check out everyone's blogs that comment on here, returning the favor so to speak. Love the artwork... I wish I could draw like that!
And almost every season of survivor is up on youtube, however most of them aren't labeled survivor season ... episode ... part ... because it would get taken down. Dazzlid is one of the people who post them.
I have that 'What's the Opposite of a Best Friend' book! At least, it's packed away in a box somewhere. I loved it too!
