    Quick note: it has been brought to my attention in the comments, that you may need to (for certain items) need to use the HOLD X Heavy attack, instead of the regular X button attack. to save frustration, keep your achievement tracker open and make sure every item registers.

    Here's my step by step walkthrough for this achievement. Some items can be found at multiple locations (i.e. the giant stuffed elephant is at stylin toddlers but I skip it there because it's at another location you have to go to anyway for multiple items. Feel free to grab an item earlier on if you see it just make sure to mark it off so you don't get confused.) You only need 1 open inventory slot to do this. Just pick up each item, use it on a zombie or 2 (they do not have to die), then drop it and move on. To be safe, personally I tried to use the "X" attack followed by holding LT and throwing the item at a zombie whenever possible, although it was probably unecessary. I did, however, get this achievement as well as all the other item-related achieves on my first attempt save for melee weapons because I haven't attempted it yet.

    *******I highly suggest doing this achievement when Art Appreciation sidequest FIRST becomes available. You'll have plenty of time to run through the list up to the point of the paintings, at which point you can do the Art Appreciation quest, TALK TO THE GUY FIRST TO BUY FUNNY PAINTING, don't just kill him right off the bat. Grab the Funny Painting, and finish the achievement. You can just ignore the guy for the quest once you've got the painting. There's no reward for this achievement so just do it all without saving then reload your save to continue on with your game.********

    Credit goes to Lovemetal423 the Item Locations guide HERE which I used to locate 99% of these, although there are a few that I found in other places more convenient to the path I’m laying out. Still, most of the “finding” work credit goes to him.


    Royal flush plaza – After exiting safehouse, grab a bucket and pylon right near the exit in the safehouse hallway to use on a couple zombies.


    In Royal Flush Plaza, head to Stylin Toddlers for a Zombie Mask on a table near the windows. Right next door at Astonishing Illusions grab a Robot Bear.

    Head down the walkway to the giant craps table for a Giant Die.

    Head up the escalator to Estell’es Fine Lady Cosmetics for a Novelty Perfume Bottle.

    From there hit Rush wireless in the middle of the walkway for a Novelty Cell Phone. Around the corner is Small Fry Duds for a Giant Stuffed Donkey.

    Last stop here is next door in Children’s Castle for a Giant Stuffed Bull, Giant Stuffed Elephant, Goblin Mask, Stick Pony, and Toy Helicopter.

    Jump the railing to the 1f and head to Slot Ranch Casino to the stage for Liberty Torch.

    Exit to the Silver strip. Head for Hot Excitorama for a Massager.

    From there head just up the silver strip to the Barrel of Goods kiosk for a Novelty Poker Chip.

    At the end of Silver Strip near Yucatan Casino you’ll find Luaii Wauii restaurant for a Tiki Mask, and Behind Leon’s Bike Trailer you’ll find a Tire.

    Head into Yucatan and from there to Palisades Mall. Head up the escalator to The Cleroux Collection for Funny painting (only available during Art Appreciation sidequest), Fancy Painting, Painting, and Small Painting.

    From there turn left down the walkway and head into Leigh’s Fine Liquor for a Novelty Liquor Bottle.

    Jump the railing and head to the water lounge thing in the middle. On the upper level of it you’ll find a Beach Ball. Down below on the countertop (some have found it on a table) you’ll find Whipped Cream.

    From here head toward Atlantica Casino, stopping at Ultimate Playhouse on the right for a Toy Spitball Gun, Water Gun, Servebot Mask, and Bag of Marbles.

    Continue down the walkway into Atlantica Casino. On the craps tables you should find Casino Chips, and on blackjack tables you'll find Playing Cards. Near the slot machines you should find a Treasure Chest (it’s large like the novelty items such as perfume bottle)


    Exit into Fortune Park and turn left to the nearby Maintenance Room, just outside of which you’ll find a Hunk of Meat.

    Head for the Platinum strip to Moe’s Maginations for a Lizard Mask, Giant Stuffed Rabbit, and Wacky Hammer.

    Head across the walkway to Paradise Platinum Screens for a Cardboard Cutout (you may have run across one of these already).

    Finally head right next door to Juggz Bar for a Novelty Beer Mug.

    Achievement Unlocked!
