U.S.A. Labor Day

The Labor Day Holiday in the US is Monday. Here is some Labor Day History:

“Rosie the Riveter” is one of the more readily recognizable icons of labor. She is the World War II-era woman who rolled up her sleeves and flexed her arm muscles, but the original “Rosie the Riveter” is not the one we often recognize. The original is on the left, but the more recognizable image is on the right.

Labor Day, the first Monday in September, is a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country.

    Been out all day so I haven’t had a chance to check my account but thanks so much for the surprise package, TLL! I’m pretty sure what you sent me yesterday covers the entire list of clothes you posted, lol, so no need to send more. Happy to kpost what I can find.

    Wheel of the Month on Asian accounts right now, if anyone’s awake.

    mystery solved (viewing thousands of dock items later)

    ‘elf shoes/slippers’ look rather similar to Jumbleberry Slippers.

    GOOD GOLLY GOSH!!!!! those Elf Shoes I have are from 2005!! someone(thinking maybe crazy) either gifted me with them, or they were a countdown to Christmas prize at some time after 2009(when I first started webkinz with a gray squirrel my sweet dgd gave me). My goodness!!

    whoa, gramma! be careful with those elf shoes (not something you want to misplace). they had to be a gift as i’ve never seen them as a countdown prize ever.

    moms, i uploaded all the pics for the mystery bag in case you want ’em on your post

    TLL, i am humbled by your presents. truly, thank you!

    zingy, don’t be humbled, for goodness sake! ๐Ÿ˜€ The clothes I’m looking for seem to be nonexistent in the trading rooms, so I’m eternally grateful that the ladies of Gymbo are giving me so much help. That couch was sitting in my dock to be traded for two years. Those who could afford it didn’t want it because they already had it, and those who wanted it couldn’t afford it, so I said to myself, “Self? That couch would have a very happy home with zingy!” I’m just happy it’s one less thing cluttering up my overflowing dock. :mrgreen:

    Thanks for the heads-up for the Wheel of the Month gaga. I was actually coming here to post just that. Shoulda known the ladies of Gymbo were already up to speed! My ID is QueenieB15. If you are sending me KinzStyle, please make sure your wish list here is up to date, because I’m sending a thank you gift whether you want it or not. :mrgreen:

    gramma, DON’T give away those shoes! Those were only available in the WShop for Christmas of 2005!!! Guard those puppies with your life, lol. You would not believe the hoops I had to jump through to get a pair. It literally took me three years of constantly trading up. The elf shoes from the countdown are red, silver, and green. I would post a picture for you, but whenever I do that, my comment disappears into the spam folder. ๐Ÿ˜€

    Any clue? This was a link on FB to estore.

    Some of you may have found our hidden promo we did recently where if you added the Tigerlily Pup
    to your cart you saw a banner at the top of the page telling you that you qualified for a FREE Cute Trench Dress.

    Now let’s see if you can find our next hidden promo. We could tell you what it is, but where’s the fun in that? ๐Ÿ˜‰

    So what are you waiting for? Start looking!

    LL – I have the black velvet moccasins!
    I’ll send a friend request (mrsdonkee).
    I haven’t been deluxe for a while so, any of those outlet clothes reserved for deluxe would be great : )

    AmberRose, wish I could help you out, but I have yet to find any of those hidden promos. I only learn about them after the fact, usually after they are over. ๐Ÿ˜€

    donkee, THANK YOU! Make up a list of all the deluxe outlet clothes you need and I will make sure you receive all of them. It might take me a few days, but I will get it done. :mrgreen: I can also get the KinzStyle Shop clothes too, if you need those. And don’t be shy about asking if you need more than one of a certain clothing item. I’m not short of Kinzcash. Real money, now that’s another matter. ๐Ÿ˜€
