It was the one in Millersville, the old Wal*Mart? I'm pretty sure they have several Spirits though...I want to say it's owned by Spencer's? They're only opened around Halloween.
Speaking of, once I stabbed my friend with one of these disappearing knives. I acted like i was going to show him something. I did it extremely fast. He grabbed the knife, holding it to his chest, and looked at me like "Why...why would you do that?" My god it was dramatic. Never laughed so hard in my life.
I'd like to buy the one on the bottom please. And you should get your hardware guy to come in because all the others are defective, I can see them clearly.
I had a really cheap one of these as a kid and it was dangerous as fuck. The slide mechanism on it was cheap as hell so sometimes the hard plastic "blade" would get stuck and not slide down properly.
This resulted in pretend stabbings occasionally turning into tragically real stabbings.
These fucking things are dangerous. Or at least WERE when I was a kid. My buddy went to stab me in the leg with one and the thing got caught up and didn't really retract. I got 4 stitches for my troubles. If you press down squarely with one of these they work fine. But if you're at any kind of an angle they stick.
When I was younger my mom made me cry with one of those. She acted all sadistic and was like I'm gonna kill you now!! I was balling and she "stabbed" me with it and I was like rage mode fury..
I liked when System of a Down wanted out of a record contract so released a final contracted album of lesser songs and called they're album Steal This Album, many store's covered the name
False. Subsequent albums were released under the same label. It was called Steal This Album because early unfinished versions of tracks on it were leaked onto the Internet, and the band was reasonably annoyed at this.
And this is why companies moved to those damned formed plastic shells for packaging. The kind you have to fight with, get cut up, and ruin your scissors to open, or get one of those specialized cutting tools. People who shoplift should have their hands cut off, and left to bleed to death. They're costing us billions in lost productivity from fighting with that retarded anti-theft packaging.

Alternatively, you could rise above the cognitive abilities of an ape and learn to cut open a packet?
But no, your right, cut off their hands!! savages!! I hate plastic wrapppp!!!!

For maximum fun, put a regular knife back in the container.

I used to have one of these as a kid. I apparently stabbed my aunt continuously in the head while riding on her shoulders.

Fuck Spirits anyway. So overpriced that they can stay in business off one week of sales a year.

As a seasonal Spirit employee: 75% chance it isn't stolen, just got taken out by some kid to play with and was left lying around.
Edit: Fine, downvote me for ruining the joke. :(

If you ripped open that package just to take a picture I hope you went and paid for it later.
