Searching for 3 "carrot" ring

Customer looking for 50-year-old novelty "three carrot ring". If you help him find the exact one like he bought for less than a dollar in Newark, I will consider you to be a hero. Customer writes;

"The ring I am searching for has an adjustable band, just like a cheap toy. On the top of the ring were three (or four) small carrots just glued (?) to the band. There is no setting.

I have had one or two suppliers of novelty rings take the time and trouble to look up catalogues from the 1950's. I have been in touch with importers from Asia and Australia; mover mind using every search engine I could think of, Google, Ask.com, Yahoo, Jeeves, etc., etc.

I really appreciate your interest and suggestions. Our anniversary is 6/21 and it'll be 50 years in 2008. Based upon my experience over the past several years, this is not too early to panic!

Hi i believe this post is for Mr Stillman looking for the 3 carrot ring. I am not sure if this is the same one he is looking for (most copies do not have the green!) Unfortunately there is not a photo:

Walmart really grinds my gears

Teresa just did her weekly Walmart trip, I know that it's the holidays, there is a ham there that was pushing $30. And Tide detergent, everything else was just low key expensive. I get it, tarrifs, rising cost of labor, insurance, yada yada yada. The total was about $225 - I have bought cars for less than than! Not very good cars, I'm just saying. What really grinds my gears though was the blatant lie at the very bottom of the reciept; Low prices You Can Trust. Every Day. A better tagline might be We know, everything is expensive, it's not just us. Maybe put the oreos back? To which I might reply: I got your creme filling right here, Buddy.
