Michael's has 70% off all Christmas stuff. This includes those ceramic Christmas Village accessories. Kind of picked over here, but I was able to get lots of rolls of the textured plastic mats for under 10 dollars per 3foot roll, cobblestone and brick.

I also found a wooden table that's Joe scale.

At Wal-Mart, I found a Hallmark ornament of what I guess is the judges chair from The Voice? I dunno, it looks to be Joe scale and that's all I care about. It was half off, making it about 4 bucks.

Chair sounds intriguing. Haven't seen that before. What section of Walmart? Doubt I'll find any but worth looking

The chair is right up front in the main Christmas display.

Sadly, my local Michaels was out of the cobblestone mats. I am going to try another one though as I want to get some to use as the floor in my Schleich castle.

Doesn't Kohl's also have those villages? Menards too.

I haven't seen the villages at my Michaels in years - but was able to find 2 large brick mat and 1 cobblestone mat tucked away at the one by the mall. Too bad the trees were all banged up - I could've used those. Will check more in the area this week on my lunch hours and see what I can find.

Thanks for the heads up, Hypno!

The cobblestone and brick mats have made basing fantasy minis a cinch, I love them. BUt I havn't been able to get more on cheap price clearance in the past couple years and I'm about out.

That's a nice table.

And that chair is so perfectly to scale with that figure, and there's absolutely no reason for it to have been designed as such, that it's almost scary.

Great finds!
