Owl Be Home For Christmas

~*~
Someone's owl collection has found a temporary new home with me.  All of these feathered friends were found at one thrift store.  There were even more, but I only took the ones that *spoke* to me and had no issues.  With the exception of two of these, they all have a purpose other than looking cute.  There's a creamer, a bank, salt and pepper shakers, and a few small containers.  I think that flocked one in the back on the left looks like a koala bear.  I hope to get these listed soon, but if you see one now that you must have for your collection, shoot me a message and I'll reserve it for you :)

The Price is Right: Game 2

Welcome! Come join the fun- the more, the merrier!
The Game: I show you my thrift shop haul from one recent outing. You leave a comment with your best estimate of the total amount that I paid. The person who comes closest without going over wins!
~*~
The Rules: One clear and definitive guess per person- no amending your answer. Please do not choose the same answer as a person who came before you- check the comments before leaving your guess. Game goes for 24 hours- I'll post the real amount in the comments section, and contact the winner. Please be sure I know how to get in touch with you- either through email or Etsy shop name. Play nice and have fun :)
~*~
The Prize: The satisfaction of winning, AND $5 in "soso bucks"- can be applied to any purchase in either of my shops. Can be saved and spent at a later time, up to one year. Can also be combined with future "soso bucks" wins!
~*~
The Stuff: This week the loot is from the same Salvation Army as last week, purchased on a Friday- a non-sale day.
