My latest craigslist find is a 1950's napkin holder that also gives out your fortune from Madame X ;D The coin slot still works, but there are no fortunes in it. I think I will look around on ebay and see if I can find any of the fortune cards. Attachments:

I went on ebay and found the cards  They are an auction only and it ends tomorrow. No bids so far. I will wait and put in my bid about 5 minutes before the auction ends. They have a 1000 original cards and they have started the bidding at $19.00. With no bids so far, it will probably stay at that amount. Keep your fingers crossed for me ;D |

That fortune teller thingy is SO cool! I will definitely keep my fingers crossed for you to win the cards, Vintage Girl. After all, how many people can have that very same item as you do, and be looking for the cards just this week?  |

I missed out on the cards darn it! But the same person has 2 more sets ending in a week. I was out to dinner with my friend and thought the bids ended an hour later, so missed out on the bidding. There was just one bid, so the price stayed low. The other 2 sets do not have bids on them, as of today. Will keep you all updated ;D

I'm wondering if you were able to get the fortune telling cards, Vintage Girl. I know you've had a lot going on and if you missed them, there'll be more! |

Hubs told me to hold off. The dispensor works, but we do not have the key to open it and load the fortunes. He is going to take a look at it this weekend. If he take out the lock, we should be able to look at the insides and see if we load in the fortunes if they will work or not. Will keep you all updated |
