Christmas is Over and The New Year Is Here

Wow, it is hard to believe that the New Year is here, and that we have to start discounting stuff that we couldn't sell for the Christmas rush! I figure we should just about sell everything that did not sell for Christmas. January should be discount month. We have lots of merchandise that should sell in the next month.

We have brought in a lot of Nightmare Before Christmas merchandise, which I have been putting up over the last week or so. It is so hard to list merchandise during the Christmas/New Years period because of the constant distractions - Dinners, friends dropping by, going out to visit friends, etc. I also had the misfortune of stepping on some glass and getting four stitches in the bottom of my foot.

I think that business in 2010 is going to be busier. Everybody is talking about the economy being better, and that is a good sign. The Dow is back well over 10,000. The stock exchange is generally a good indicator of how well the economy is doing. The general business state of mind is more positive, which will help to stimulate the economy. So 2010 is going to be a busy year. It looks exciting. I am really positive about 2010!

We are clearing out a lot of merchandise at Fun Cool Collectibles We see 2010 as being a turning point in our business! So, visit us during our New Years Sales, and buy some great merchandise.

The Christmas Season is In Full Swing!

We have been soooooo busy at Fun Cool Collectibles We have been chopping prices, and people are going nuts! All of our shoe laces and Rock Band boxers are half of what they were a week ago. I will be chopping the prices on the belts in by Friday. We have been dropping prices on some of our hoodies, which is a shame, but what the heck.

The price chopping really helps out the customer, but there are always cycles, and this is a buyers cycle. So, take advantage of our sales, and purchase those items that you really want. If you spend $30 through Google Checkout, you will receive $5 off your order! If you spend $50 you will get free shipping! We have lots of great deals for Christmas. It is so hard to believe that there is just a month before Christmas!

If you are interested in some of our great deals, visit us Fun Cool Collectibles

Lots of Toddlers and Infant Halloween Costumes

I have been busy putting up Halloween costumes for infants and toddlers. It is so hard to believe that there is about three weeks until Halloween and only 10 weeks until Christmas. I finished putting up all of the Christmas Stockings last week.
The business has really picked up over the last couple of weeks. I have been making daily trips on my bicycle to the post office every day. You would think that I would lose a lot of weight at this rate, lol.


We managed to locate some nice little baby infant costumes. You can find many of these costumes at Fun Cool Collectibles. Why shouldn't your infant be able to celebrate Halloween.

The Best Places to Look Charms


Wow, Charms are popular items these days. There are thousands of online businesses that sell Italian charms to all sorts of people who are interested in collecting or wearing charms as a fashion statement. We’ve dug through a lot of the offers out there and we found that charms of all sorts can be bought for reasonable prices if you look hard enough. Here are the 3 tips to find the coolest charms online.

1)Search for charms on multiple search engines. While this might seem a little obvious to most people, guess what? Different search engines produce markedly different results. For instance, everyone seems to love Google these days. Google is, indeed a remarkable search engine, but it’s not everything. A lot of new sites have a very tough getting a decent Google ranking no matter what they do. While it may seem weird to dub Microsoft an underdog, the MSN search results might return all sorts of charm related sites that you can’t find elsewhere. Search for “Italian Charms” on MSN and Yahoo, not just Google and you will find very different sites selling different types of charms than those on Google.

2)Compare designers. All charms are not created equal! What seems too good to be true usually is. Charms come from all sorts of designers, from the premiere designers in the world to the lowest quality imaginable. In fact, we wouldn’t be surprised to see Tiffany’s advertising a selection of charms. To say Tiffany’s products are different than other retailers’ is an understatement. Furthermore, some charms are made in China. Overall, expect lower quality in chinese charm bracelets than others. Pursue a good deal, but remember not all charms are created equal.

3)Find a local designer or distributor. Try searching for charms with a zipcode or city name. For instance “charms 90292” might bring a list of local charm retailers near you. You might want to inspect the charm before buying them and using the internet to find local retailers is a great way to do so. Don’t ignore the local merchants, a lot of them have websites too. Use the web for more than mail order shopping, there are a lot of people who use the internet to show off their wares that are only available in their stores.

Purses, Purses, Purses, Video

There are so many purses out there. I have written so many articles about handbags in the past couple of months. We have just purchased some purses. This is a necessary part of a woman's persona. Actually it has been part of her since the Egyptians. I never really understood it before, but now I understand why they need the purse.

Why not carry around a purse of one of your favourite bands or one your favorite Disney characters. We have purchased a few purses, and this is just a small selection of those purses we have bought. I hope that you enjoy it.


They are all officially licensed product. Take a look at them and pay us a visit at Fun Cool Collectibles
