Thumbs up Latest Walmart find

I was shopping at Walmart yesterday. Cruising by the pet isles, I saw there were boxes of dog toys- rope toys, chew toys, tennis balls. They were everywhere- and some really nice stuff. Just thrown in boxes in the isle.
Lookee what I found



All three items came in 1 package. The green ball is textured, and has a bell inside it. The rubber this stuff is made out of is pretty tough.
So, you all wanna take bets on how much I payed???


*drumroll*



My grand total was a whopping 2 dollars!
Now how flipping cool is that? I am giving the green ball to the caiques as a foot toy- the pink ring can be used as a foot toy too. Or, I am thinking of drilling through the rings and rigging them up as toys....

I almost got that toy. I think I will. Mine love rubbery, chewy stuff like that.

I am buying some more next time- these make really great foot toys. My caiques really like rubber stuff like this, and I am going to rig up the rings as some rough and tumble toys....

i made several toys for my keets, finiches, IRN and my sister n law has a hyper active Amazon and I made her a few for him too. My boyfriend gets a kick out of me cause I get all excited about these cheap toys for the birds. hehehe also freedom, as you may know, go hit their baby dept. I found some wonderful teething things (not punchable) for less than a dollar.
