    Scored a vintage toboggan on craigslist for $25. Picked up a pre-lit wreath for 60% off ($18 total, reg $45). So for under $50 I have a nice looking decoration.

    Ya but it will still provide a bit of a cushion and a bit of extra excitement prehaps as well.

    I've got my toboggan on the front porch, next to the door, just in case I want to use it.

    I do like the wreath idea, the "Chief Decorator" will need to see this.
