http://cgi.ebay.com/30-SHAMROCK-IRISH-IRELAND-CLOVER-CELTIC-CAR-MAGNET-LOT-/230298797442?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item359ee0c582

these are the same size as the one joe linked (5.5").  except that there are 30 in the pack for 19.95 +6.99 shipping or 26.94.  That comes to 90 cents a piece.  Anyone want to do a group buy?  I can order them and you can get them from me.

Everyone should bring decorations for their own car. I will be providing the items to give to the children.

I bought 20 of the ones from the ebay link.  Cost me $24 and some change after shipping.  Oh and it's exactly the same size as the ones smartin passed out a few years ago.  I still had one on my fridge

I thought someone had bought those last year and they weren't as good of quality or the same size. When you receive them, you can let us know.

Cool. That was another complaint -- that they didn't stay on very well. Hopefully, they will.

Dunno about yours, but our Kappa is not made of plastic at all :slap:

The chick magnet might fall off, Kelu!  :slap:

We put the magnets on our hoods and our doors and they haven't fallen off yet!  :poke:

:slap:  okay since I'm feeling :slap: around, I won't even suggest a group buy, instead I will buy them myself and sell them for $2 apiece for anyone who needs them.  You can stop :slap: me around now.
