Shopping is hard - let's do math

[leora]

Alas, no math, just shopping. So, I realized Halloween is coming up again. I'm trying to avoid chocolates, because a lot of cocoa is acquired through horrible cruelty, including child enslavement. Since the point of Halloween is that I give goodies to kids who drop by to make them happier, I find the idea of supporting the enslavement and torture

Beth has ordered a fair amount of stuff from Oriental Trading. Most of what they stock is quite inexpensive, and of limited interest to me, but the children love stuff like sticky teeth.

Costco occasionally (seasonally, really) has Play-Doh in tiny containers, which is fairly suitable. Apparently Target has a fair supply of this sort of item as well.

Oriental Trading yes yes yes yes.

*Ahem*. As you were. :)

Also, yay toys! The couple by Alex's house would always give out toothbrushes, which made me happy. They were dentists.
