So, I had no luck until after you posted this, Daze.
Tonight, I got:
1 - Pretty Pink Flower Hat
1 - Novelty Glasses
1 - JubJub Hard Hat
1 - Usukicon Y9 Attendee Badge
1 - Cheese Shop Background
1 - Grassy Meadow Background
2 - Censor Bar Glasses
1 - Fashionable Potato Sacks

I gave one of the censor bar glasses to a friend, just cause.

However, it is WAYYYYY past my bedtime. So. Bed now!

That's actually a neat idea - it will probably keep prices of wearables reasonable.

Plus, I've actually managed to snipe a Potato Sack and Gormball Backgroud in like, 5 minutes, while I never ever managed to get anything from the money tree or the rubbish dump, even if I went for the really useless things that cost 1 np.

My only question is: if this is like the Rubbish Dump, are we going to schedule a day where we swarm the shop to see what happens again? If so, I'll try to make it.

Trying to remember correctly, so other can correct me if I am wrong...

Many of us agreed on a time and day when we would all go to the Rubbish Dump and refresh like mad to see what would happen. We saw a lot of our usernames pop up and would post what items or whatever we saw. There were some very nice items that were 'discarded' too. I remember that as one of the funnest things I have ever done on Neopets.

^^^ I was about to say the same, but then I refreshed again and saw a potato sack thing. I sat there for a second, "Huh? A clothes! Hmmmmm." *click* and somehow I got it. I guess no one else was paying attention, because there was no way I would have gotten anything from the Money Tree that way.

Now my lab rat isn't naked. It's still ugly though.

I have gotten:

2 - Ultra Fashionable Potato Sack

I am pretty slow at it. Right when I got there, there were 4 or 5 items (backgrounds, a pandaphant ball, and some other stuff) but I was too slow to get any.

Heh, I've no chance. 56k connection here. Still, I like the idea, some of the backgrounds prices may drop enough so my unconverted neopets can look spiffy! :D
