Halloween Silly Bandz

Silly Bandz are still going strong...at least in my house. There are so many new types of Silly Bandz out now that it can be hard to decide which ones to get. I have decided that since my kids have so many of them that I need to cut back a little. Today I discovered that there are Halloween Silly Bandz! This pack includes a spider, a witch, a bat, a pumpkin, a ghost, and Frankenstein. They are so cute! I thought it it would be a great way to justify buying them by using Halloween as an excuse. I could buy up a couple of packs and give them out for Halloween instead of the traditional candy! That way, the kids gets a cool treat that I don't have to feel guilty about. Sounds like a plan to me. What do you guys think? If you want to see them or pick up a few pack for yourself, you can check them out here.

There Are Rare Silly Bandz?

So last week my daughter came home with Silly Bandz going up her wrist. I didn't even know they existed until then. (I'm assuming that they were given to her because she didn't have any when I dropped her off that day.) We started talking about them and apparently there are 'rare' Silly Bandz. I was intrigued that they could be rare when as far as I knew, they had just been invented...I was wrong. According to my nine year old, the dragon, the cross, and the 'rock' symbol ones are rare. The dragon come in the Fantasy Pack but I have not seen the others yet. It is amazing to me that as many times as I have had rubber bands on my wrists in the past, I never had the idea to make them into shapes and sell them to children. Another million dollar idea gone with the wind. Off to find these 'rare' Silly Bandz and make my child happy.
