I bought quite a few things with my green stamps. I didn't collect the other kind as much but several places we shopped at gave out the green stamps. There was a distribution center that I went to to redeem my stamps. Seems like there was a small catalog we could look at also. Several things I bought were my kids stroller, a Cosco step stool, milk glass creamer and sugar with a tray. I'm racking my brain to think of the other things and can't remember what else. I'm sure some toys, maybe some more things for the kitchen. I was sorry to see them stopped.
