A hunting we will go

I have a wedding to go to next week. My pal Berto came up with a cool idea for a previous wedding a couple of years ago, of putting together a "Can O' Goods" as the wedding present. The idea is you go to the super-discount retail chain of your choice, pick up a 30-gallon platic trash can, fill it up with mostly useful stuff, and that's your multi-purpose gift. Five of us chipped in some cash, and today a couple of us went to Walmart and filled up a can quite nicely. We found some REALLY neat stuff to put in there (switch-blade potato peeler), along with a few silly things here and there ("Charmin to Go", bubble wrap [hereby known as "fun in a bag"]), and some practical things as well (asprin for the big night, no excuses K!). Whether or not the bride and groom appreciate our efforts, we sure had a lot of fun hunting down cool stuff to load up the can. They should in the very least have fun going through the thing, or perhaps in taking it back and exchanging everything for the cash...
