$1 Zhu Zhu Pets at CVS with extracare card

They are usually $10. Although the warning to "keep away from hair" makes you think twice & brings up some tragic imagery, but hey its a buck! If they can sell these for a dollar how much does it cost to manufacture these things?

Color Me Mine, Downtown Silver Spring

This is why I created this blog:  Color Me Mine has been open for 8 years, I've lived here for a year and a half 5 minutes away from it - yet only last week stumbled upon it while going for a slice of Z-Pizza next door!

It's a great resource to have in town.  For a $7 studio fee for your child, and a purchase of a sculpture (plate, mug, statue) ranging  from $10-$20 you can have at it with a custom selected palette of paints and a space you are allowed to get messy.  We had a great time and came away with a classy Santa mug.  You need to leave your wares for about another week for a firing in the trusty kiln.
