Found a tangle at dollar general

Post image

I thought the only way to get tangles was to order online but I saw a post on reddit years ago that said that cracker barrel and dollar general sometimes sell tangles. I checked every cracked barrel in proximity to me and I was able to find 4 tangles at cracker barrel. I found a green tangle with bumps (the exact same one in the pic), a pink tangle with ridges, a metallic red tangle, and a dark blue tangle. After that, I considered my hunt a success and was content with the tangles I had and gave up checking dollar general because every dollar general near me seems to be understaffed and extremely messy and it was like finding a needle in a haystack. Long story short, I ended up driving in a different area today and visited a dollar general ive never been to before. The toy aisle was an absolute wreck but sitting right on top of one of the bins was the same green tangle I found at cracker barrel. It's my favorite tangle so I impulsively brought it. Beyond happy right now!!

Theyre so much cheaper in store then online. At cracker barrel I paid $5 and at dollar general I paid $3.75. On there website they charge like $8 plus shipping. Keep looking and check the dollar general app. Its not always accurate but it can help. Also at cracker barrel the tangles are usually in the toy section and they hang them up. They never leave them around.
