Has anyone else heard of them? They are sold at craft stores in the same department as floral design supplies, as vase fillers for fresh or silk flower arrangements.
They start out as tiny hard spheres; the clear color variety looks just like the silicone dessicant found in shoe boxes (to keep them dry). When you leave them in water for about 1 hour each one swells up to about marble size and becomes a beautiful clear or colored sparkling orb. Then they are squishy and slippery. Most amusing.
The package is about 2 inches across and contains 200 or so. They come in clear, blue, and green so far but they CAN be colored with food coloring as they expand.
Warm water makes them expand faster.
They shrink back to original size when they dry out in about a week!
Salt destroys them completely.
What the heck are they???

It was a board game my friend had in the early to mid 80's. The board was I think a picture of the world, and no it wasn't 'risk'. you had little peices like came with the lite bright that you would place on the board for places you've been. I am still pretty fuzzy on the details. I know the bex was quite large, and was white, for some reason I have the word Destinations in my head, but upong looking online, it's not the same board game

Where could i get the most money if i decided to sell my Nintendo Gamecube, or Xbox.

Also, how much do you think i could get for a gamecube, good condition, with about 7 games, and two controllers.

How much could i get for an Xbox with 2 wireless controllers, a headset, two games (Halo 2 and Midnight club 3), and a memory card.

Anyone who works at a game store, or used to, help would be much appreciated.

I found it in my uncles old subbuteo set which he left me

On one side it has the year "1896" with an illustration of what looks like a knight on a horse slaying a dragon.

On the other side is the inscription: "VICTORIA • DEI • GRA • BRITT • REGINA • FID • DEF • IND • IMP"

It is approximately 39mm in diameter

and approximately 2mm in depth

I think the song is called Energy, but i'm not sure. It's had no voice, just a quite electical rhythm. Very addicting.

Also, if possible, could anyone provide a d/l location for it?

Thanks in advance

For 4H, my son is signed up to make a latch hook rug, which he's done before, but it can't be from a kit. Are there stores that sell the "background thing with the little squares", and patterns (or are there sites that let you download free patterns)? And do stores sell yarn in little bundles, or would we need to buy balls of yarn and cut it to size? Any input would be appreciated, thank you.

Ok, i have this red and white checkered trolley bag, it looks o-k, but it needs something to make it look fabulous or at least reasonably good looking to use for college. Any ideas? how would you spruce it up in a good way, no crappy emos telling me to stick a hundred badges on it and iron on patches please.

At the moment it just looks like it was knicked from an old lady.
