Re: popcorn

make sure you also check out thrift/second hand stores such as Salvation
Army, Thrift Village, Value Village etc. etc. You can find lot of air
poppers and no doubt you can find any other variety of poppers you wish.
Always good to think second hand because you can usually pick up mint
condition appliances for dirt cheap. People tend to impulse buy or get as
gifts and then end up discarding them.
