I keep a "Halloween pile" and usually give away a few comics every Halloween. But on a select basis, not to every kid. Mrs Roo (who loves Halloween more than Christmas) usually wears a costume when she gives away candy at the front door. I obviously don't interfere with that; my job is to lurk in the shadows in the front yard and make sure no overzealous older kids get out of hand. We have an extensive display so I like to keep an eye out just in case I usually have a small stack of comics in my lurking spot. And whenever I hear an extra-polite kid says something nice about the display or Mrs Roo's costume or anything else that gives me a warm fuzzy I offer him or her the choice of a comic from the pile. It's fun and I look forward to it every year! Not every kid is into comics, but sometimes a dad will get more excited about the comic than his kid, and that's fun too!

Thanks for the heads up on this one @Darwination! I found a sweet copy of the SEP that this image was in on eBay for cheap. Since I missed out on the OA auction!

This book is a lot prettier than the rest of my square bounds, was wondering what the consensus was on this one, thanks!

This interesting little bundle was peeking out amidst a pile of old magazines. I glanced over at the dude and he held up five fingers. After pondering for half a second, I decided to risk a hard-earned fiver. -

According to the eBay shipping calculator, the label cost for packages shipped USPS Ground Advantage coast to coast is: 1 lb $6.33 (29% discount) 10 lb $6.33 (80% discount) 20lb 1oz $6.33 (89% discount) WHAT??? Is this really true? Am I the only one to not know this? Isn't 20 pounds about 140 bagged and boarded comics? EDIT: Never mind, I was using the size of a Gemini mailer, not the correct box size. So I guess you can send heavy slate tiles in a Gemini mailer pretty cheap through eBay in case you were wondering... -

A buck each and all minty mint, for once it paid off putting some cash in my pocket on my Saturday walk. -
Where do we cast our vote for "Thread of the Year"?
