    Bubble lights are very old-school. If you're not a fan of them, I can completely understand bubble lights going under your radar. I sometimes see them in well-stocked holiday sections but I'm a fan of all things "Christmas Electrics" so I'm likely to notice them. I think I've only seen them on a store display tree once, and even then I'm not so sure...

    That's the thing about living in the US - we buy all sorts of junk. if it can be thought up, someone is selling it here. I'm sure I can find an Elvis-head Bubble light somewhere if I look hard enough!! Well, not sure about a James Brown bubble light, but definitely Elvis.

    Interesting. Have never heard of bubble lights until now, but they sound pretty cool. I'll need to Google it and find out more.
    Looking for an inexpensive, but thoughtful gift for family and/or friends?

    I love the selection of personalized Christmas Ornaments these guys have:

    Walmart, Target and Big lots had them last year.. I was at big lots yesterday and they already had half of the Christmas stuff up and were still working on the display so ill check back in a few days and see if they have them
    Now wait a minute, Susie. Just because every child can't get his wish that doesn't mean there isn't a Santa Claus.
