Turkeygirl Posted December 16, 2006 Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 So I like never win anything in contests, don't usually expect to and I enter them for fun. Well at the feed mill where we get our feed and animal stuff, they had a contest/drawing for $50 gift certificate. My sister and I collect Breyer model horses for anyon who knows what they are and if you don't, well they are about the best model horse maker in the world. Anyway I'm on the computer and a phone call comes through saying we'd won a $50 certificate! Woohoo. We didn't know if it was me, my sister, or mom who won but we got there and the ceritificate had my name on it! Of course I shared with my sister,lol. so yeah, just thought I'd tell you all I actually won something, ha ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doughboy1956 Posted December 16, 2006 Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 Re: This is very cool Congrats TG. Did you win for having the best Breyer model horse? Or did you just put your name in for a draw? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M00N Posted December 16, 2006 Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 Re: This is very cool Congratulations! It's always fun winning something! I also know what Breyer Horses are I've been collecting them since I was a little girl. It's good to hear of another collector around here. I was always one those kids that liked to keep my toys in their boxes. Let's just say I have one heck of a collection of them still in their boxes (except for a few I found with no box at flea markets or special run ones that were shipped from Breyer's with no box). Just to get an idea of how many I have here's a few pictures. Do you have a picture of your favorite model(s)? Two shelves side by side. One side of my closet (other side mirrors this one) Here's a couple of the speical runs or my favorite ones. Deer Family Boxed stablemates (the tiny ones) special run One my glow in the dark paint ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeygirl Posted December 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 Re: This is very cool Wow Moon that is a great collection you've got there! It's great to know of another collector, especially on Realtree:-) I'll have to get some photos of mine to send you:) A few years back my sister and I actually went to a couple model "horse shows" down in PA - something NY lacks,lol. I think 3 total. First one we were at I got Reserve GC and the third one we went to my sister got Reserve GC which was neat. You're never too old for Breyers,lol.

I never went to one of the shows for them, they always fell on bad times of the year where I didn't have a ride to go to the show. Congratulations to you and your sister on your wins! One these years I'll make it to a show. I was a frequent customer though at the PA "Toys On The Square" shop (not sure if you heard of it or not, but the owner is a major collector and seller), but always missed their shows when they had them going on. I haven't collected them in a couple years now due to spending my spare money on hunting gear recently and lack of place to put more of them lol.
