Default Where are the skeletons

I have been all over the city this week looking for skeletons. Just plain old skeletons, about 5 to 6 feet tall. nowhere to be found, until today. Menards put some 6 1/2' tall (perfect) skeletons on sale for $40 apiece. A little pricey for me though.

Where can I find cheap 5 to 6 foot skeletons? The only place that I see is the Orienta lTrading Company. Is that the best for lifesize skeletons?

I'd kill for Menard's around here... I get all my skellies (3' ratchet) online. I'd give my left arm for a Menard's foam skellie... *grouse grumble*

These skeletons at Menards are not foamies, they are thick plastic...great great shape... bone separations where they are supposed to be and all...I just don't want to spend $40 a piece on them...Hopefully they will have some AFTER Halloween...maybe a better discount.

Do you have a Big Lots near you? They seem to be "Blucky Central". They are the soft plastic jointed skeletons that stand just under 5 feet. Many people around here use them as is, or doctor them up to look like corpses. They are $12.00 each, but they were on sale a few weeks back at $7.00. At this late date, tho, I'd guess that they've been replaced by Christmas decorations...
