Things I did not buy at the Value Village and why

I don't need the Charles and Diana mug because now I have a picture of it.

Yes, another lava lamp would be great, but this one has a plastic base and top cone, so it's not top of the line.

$5.99 for this small bag of marbles? It's a good reminder that "value" has multiple meanings and one is the price that a buyer is willing to pay. In this case, the potential buyer is not willing to pay the asking price.
