In addition to the Blythe Loves Littlest Pet Shop sets, I did buy a few other things. I also bought a couple of things in Boston right before I left, but I'll show those off in my next post (there's really not much). The bulk of the other stuff I bought was from the Sanrio store.

I ended up making two trips. On the first trip I bought the travel mug and the chococat keychain. I don't really need another travel mug, but they are handy, and look how awesome that design is! The mug has a 3D effect too, which is pretty nifty. I like the Sanrio travel mugs because they are steel inside, but the lid design kinda sucks (hard to clean). Oh well. I saw the charms as I was walking out the door and really needed to go back for them! I waiting until the next day tho, because I figured I'd give myself some time to really decide if I "had" to have anything else. I decided I needed the lunchbox too. I've been thinking I kinda wanted another one (for storage) and definitely this design is great! Buying the lunchbox got me the really cool 50th Anniversary bag too, which was a nice perk!

I had to go back to buy this Deery Lou charm - look how cute it is! They also had a Charmmy Kitty charm, but I feel like I bought that already. Of course, I have no idea where it is. I hope I can figure that out before I go back to CT or I may just buy another one. ^^; This trip I also bought a bracelet to attach the charms to. This was sort of a whim, but I'm glad I bought it. I think it will be fun to have a charm bracelet. I started attaching all the charms last night, I'll have to post a picture when I'm done - I have to find all my charms! In addition to the Charmmy Kitty charm I may/may not have, I know I have a couple of others (not sanrio)... uh... somewhere... >.<

I also bought this chococat charm for my friend. Sorry it's not the best picture, but he has a bird on his head! I am tempted to keep it/get another one for myself tho. We'll see... >.>

I really did want the big version of the Chococat (and My Melody) Kitty plushies, but a. I really feel like there's a limit to how many plushies I can have in my room and I'm already at that limit and b. there's also a limit as to how much money I should be spending on sanrio stuff, and I was over that limit. :/

I only got a trinket with the first purchase for some reason, I am not sure how they decide when to give those out... It's kind of amusing, it's like a 'secret' trinket, because it comes wrapped up in a little plastic envelope so you can't see what it is...

It turned out to be a Strawberry King trinket. I am actually not at all familiar with Strawberry King, I only found out about him recently - I am not sure when he was around, but he seems to be back for the 50th anniversary? I kind of wish it had been a trinket of a character I like better, but oh well, it's cute enough for a free item! XD

In addition to the trinket, I got a free 50th Anniversary bookmark:

The back is cute too, and explains the shape:

I bought just a couple of things at Target:

I'm really going to have to figure out a way to make those riding pants not-pink. They are so obnoxious!

The Harajuku Lovers pencil box was part of a small section of Harajuku Lovers stuff that was on clearance for 30% off. I don't think they ever had any of that stuff at the Boston Targets! Or, if they did, I never saw it. So it's always funny when the first time you see something is when it is on clearance. They also had folders, notebooks, memo cubes, and file boxes. I'm not the biggest Harajuku Lovers fan, so I didn't want any of the notebooks and folders - thanks to Hello Kitty, I have more of those than I could ever use in one lifetime! ^^; The file box was tempting, but it didn't have a lid (so not dust proof) and it was still $9. Didn't seem worth it...

I really could've gone a lot more crazy, but I'm going to the New York Anime Festival at the beginning of October, and that is sooner than I realize! So I'm trying to be 'good' and save money for that. I'm hoping there will be lots of good things to buy - tho not too many, so I don't go too crazy! I haven't been *that* good...
