Looking to Populate An Archive

Here’s the story (well, not all of it).  My idea for National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) centers around a storehouse for objects that do more than they really should.  The only catch to this is that the objects are basicly crappy plastic items, toys and items that don’t have any real significant extra value (example:  a pocker chip that bestows good luck, but only when it is part of the bet, and can fail at any time).  Not all of these items are going to figure prominently, but I would like to include them for color (and added word count).

What are some of the cheap plastic freebie items out there that would work well in this type of setting?

Hypothetical Question Of The Day

The scenario:

In reaction to a major devastating event, your state has passed an anti-vigilante law, vaguely written to outlaw the use of super powers for any purpose.  You have manifested super powers.  While walking on the beach one day, you see out at sea a sinking boat with people trapped on board.  It would be very easy for you, with your powers, to rescue them.

The question:

Do you rescue them?
