My husband is VERY concerned about the Olympics this year
he says it looks like it might be a good deal, but he's afraid they'll just be a cheap knock off of the real Olympics and he'll be disappointed in the quality his other concern is if they are being sponsored by WalMart :rofl: :evilgrin:

1. I'm more worried about the lead based paint that might be used
to paint the medals that are made of cheap scrap medal and painted :P :hi:
