Good Buy!!! I wounder how much a snowman would go for, but I'm woundering how they go about shipping and handling on that. Would be interesting.

Why not spend half of that on a sno-cone machine to make your own snow and snoballs for life!

Send them a jar of water and put a note on there saying "some assembly required"

When this happened--- it was on every news station in CT.
From the beginning of the story of why to the end of the story of the snowball fight on the green in their home town. It has been said that this firefighter does a lot of donating.
Just wanted to add to the ha ha.
