After being uber disappointed about not getting a wristband for the iron man release Friday, I was a bit frustrated. Then my frown was quickly turned upside down when I went crazy trading this weekend starting with PTN, moving into Post PTN in the Paradise Pier bar and then post post PTN at a friends house, finally ending with Iron Man Trading Event.

Just wanted to share my fun finds and also give a shout out to those that helped me out :)


So here are my finds from the actual PTN event

The moving into the post PTN (which are always much more fun!) Got to trade in person with foryou, scoring some sweet Paris pins. Thanks Echo, foryou and ozzie!

Ha! Ummm, the past two weeks pretty much decimated my trade book. I broke up my beloved tales set and have made a lot of ground with them :) I was sad to break it up, but seeing all these awesome pins makes me forget. ha!
 
Talk about a pin haul! All the pins you picked up are great! I seriously need to start investing in traders of my own..
