Once You Pop Rd8 - HALLOWEEN Edition (CLOSED; SENDOUT Sept 27)

[jMisSister]

I am finding the "Once you pop, you can't stop" slogan to be pretty darn accurate!  I don't usually binge on junk but good lord...these things are so light and yummy I could eat a whole frickin' can!!! 

Now, does anyone have any tricks to airing the can out?!?!

Now, does anyone have any tricks to airing the can out?!?! 

Depending how pungent the flavour you chose was you might be able to get away with just using like washing up liquid and a lil water.  I chose rather a pungent can last time and the only way I could get rid of the smell (after having tried washing it) was to pop some baking soda in and then leaving it with the lid on for a day or so.

...pop some baking soda in and then leaving it with the lid on for a day or so.

really, really good idea. And so simple too! I soooo should have though of that! 


onion blossom sounds really goooood! i NEED to try! i found the cheesy-fry one... and i agree, bleh.

I tried some new-to-me flavors...

• Cheesy Fries-meh, not great, kiddos like them though
  
• Blazin' Buffalo-good, but I could use more spicy, I love spicy!
  
• Onion Blossom-dangerously yummy!

I tried some new to me flavors too
One of them was the Blazin' buffalo (well I should not say I tried it cuz hubby ate them all before I got a chance) But he also said they were good but really not "blazin'" at all
I tried the loaded baked potato flavor and was less then impressed.
Son ate the pizza flavor and LOVED them.
And daughter and I finished off a can of cheese-ums (which I just noticed are no longer called cheese-um but now just chedder)

Plus with all the kids I have at my house on any given day the 10 for $10 pringles have now been taken care of for me. So I have 10 cans sitting in my kitchen with baking soda in them and a base coat of white paint on them ready to be crafted.

OH OH OH OH OH OH OH OH!!!!
I gotta tell you what I found today!!!
I am so excited and nerdy about this lol
I went to a local discount store we have here that is known for having dirt cheep items they get after insurance claims and such.
well seems that a local hallmark shop went out of biz so they bought all of their stock.
I bought 5 large brown paper grocery bags marked Hallmark Stock for $1.99 each.
Well they were like grab bags so you would not be able to look in them before buying.
Anyway...I loaded them in the car and MADE myself wait until I got home before I peeked. (Man was that hard  )
Anyway...
They were sutffed FULL of cards, invites, tissue paper, wrapping paper, ribbion, bows ETC ETC ETC
There was so much GOODNESS!!!
But, they were all broken up into holidays.  So I got 2 bags that were full of Christmas stuff, 1 full of Easter/Mother's day/Spring, 1 with what looks like it could be graduation/asnniversary/congrats type stuff, and 1 with YUP YOU GUESSED IT...
HALLOWEEN GOODIES!!!!
It has a little of everything in it....
Packages of 8 invites with envelopes (unopened)
Garlin with ghost, skulls, pumpkins
Loose cards
Cello goodie bags
Balloons (mylar and laytex)
some neat stationary
and too much more to list

I AM SO EXCITED!!!
OK I will stop now...this post has turned into a War and Peace size novel lol

I'm so jealous, Craftie Catty!

[half pint]

just sent in my info

[beckster]

When I bought my tube of chips, the selection was waaaaay less than I expected.  I kinda wanted to get pizza flavor, but they ran out.  So I got cheddar instead.  After I got home I started wondering about getting the smell out of the tube, so I opened my can and took a whiff.  And to my surprise, no smell.  Well, nothing super strong.  I think keeping it with the lid off for a night or two should do the trick!  No extra work for me!   Well, except for the eating part....

Does anybody else notice this with the cheddar ones, or is it just me?

I'm having to avoid Michael's or I will empty my bank account on all the Halloween stuff that just came in!

 

Guess I'm going to Michael's tomorrow

omfg.... the stuff is awesome!!! But I have an expensive habit.... which is the halloween village collection. BUT- it's just so awesome!!! I mean seriously, I went the other day and I just got sad b/c of all the stuff I can't get yet.... lol! but someday....

[Ma Rut]

The village stuff is awesome! The octopus-shaped spinning ride sold out at my Michael's in literally a day or two, people are going nuts for that stuff!

[CreativeChick8]

I'm totally going on Saturday cause I collect those little halloween villages, but only the scary ones (asylums, graveyards, ect)

I guess you have collected that I hate anything that's supposed to look "cute" for halloween.

anyone else agree?
