      Donna: I appreciate your time to visit my blog! Do you have Dollar Tree stores near you? That's where I purchased the bag. Actually it's 2 for $1.25 plus tax!!! For me that's a win-win quick decision. Especially for this newish competition blog of mine when I do a cute complimentary tag and use as inspiration for the different format(s) accepted at FQHSKCB.
