Well, depending on where you are in Atlanta, TippyToes, I can make some recommendations. I am originally from Gwinnett County and know many places that you should have good luck. (I will PM this to you in case you don't read this thread again.)

I've cleaned out my local thrift stores, they haven't had any more ponies since I bought them all lol...I've been waiting for more. I love getting so many of them for 50 cents to a $1.50 each! So cheap and there's usually 2 or more per bag.

Yes, actually... Unique, the store where I got Stardancer, generally has 2 ponies in a bag with various other toys (most of which I end up trashing but I got a Ninja Turtle for my boyfriend in one), for about $2. Stardancer's the first one I've seen on her own (she was at 99 cents though), although she did have a weird polar bear-elephant hybrid toy in the bag with her.

Yeah I've got some extra stuff too, and TONS of baby toys in one bag when all I wanted was Jazz Matazz, so I donated the baby toys and any other extra toys I get that I don't want to keep.

Yep, that'd be Napper. She came with Purple hair in the stores and green hair mail order, so technically 2 of her.

And there is Baby Gusty sparkle pony who is yellow with curly magentaish hair

New Haul!
Another great haul this evening, from the thrift store that has been the source of about 75% of my collection!! (I SWEAR they have a big horde of ponies in the back and put out new ones a few days after I go through and buy their stock, naughty thrift store!) For a grand total of $7.15 I got:
McDonalds 2008 Scootaloo (which is funny because I just traded mine off last week)
Beachberry
Gem Blossom
Lavender Locket
Pinkie Pie VI
Skedoodle
Toola-Roola II (2009 "Core Friend" version)

Pictures tomorrow after they've had their hair brushed!!
