Yesterday I picked up two Iitalla Festivo candle sticks, the single ring and the triple ring. I was excited. It was kind of funny because I moved with super sonic speed when I saw them, and snatched them from above a woman's head. I did a little dance. She looked at me like I was crazy.
Today, I stopped for a quick run at another S. Army about 30 miles away from the first. A six ringer!!!! It is giant, and there are two that are bigger!
Total spent on all three?? Five buckaroos!
So now I figure that these are scattered around all the S. Armies in the area and it is making me a little crazy. I want them all.

Brat you are a darling. Thank you for the sweet comments. I am searching for all the levels of the Festivo. I believe there is one through eight.
I will tell you something funny. I got the mouse when I got the two candle sticks. However, I couldn't figure out what it was. It wasn't until I saw the picture that I placed that it was a mouse. I was thinking ant eater. Seriously! Dork!
LOL! To much ha ha Ok i will Look for more information on web and I will Keep my @@ open ok. I love the mouse too but we both could call it an ant eater;)
