[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 479341, member: 1233"] Lisa, if you are not on freecycle, find the one for your area and join NOW. Have Nichole do it also. then post in both places about batman/spiderman toys for a special needs boy. You will probably get some great stuff. At least here you would. Last year there was a post from a woman wanting rescue heroes stuff. thank you had outgrown it but not gotten rid of it, mostly very lightly used because he had so much from bdays, gparents, and what we found at yard sales. The woman wanted it for his birthday in Nov, plus ideas for a rescue hero party. You can't find RH party goods anymore because they only made them maybe the first 2 yrs they were out. WHich was years before the birthday party we had for thank you wtih that theme. So I gave her my ideas and boxed up all the RH toys and videos, plus threw in a box of other vhs tapes my kids had outgrown. I got a huge hug from a woman bawling her eyes out - her husband had worked at a factory that closed here and his new job paid half of the old job. She was thrilled and apparently told her son the toys were from a boy in town who wanted to share them because he had loved htem but outgrown them. He called and thanked me on the phone (the little boy) - wanted to thank thank you but he wasn't home. It was super sweet. We get a LOT of stuff like that going on with our freecycle. People are cleaning out for xmas toy drives, so if you post on freecycle you may get very lucky. [/QUOTE]
