Default One-shot and items...

I went trough the FAQ but didn't come to an answer.

I was wondering if I was able to carry (on the table) some one-shot item. It would allow to free my hand of some lower level cards at the cost of others knowing I have such cards (and allow them to steal them too...). I'm playing mostly Munchkin Zombie (I think it's one of the most well balanced set...) and one-shot items like Marbles or Happy Face have a price and all that stuff like some other itmes... I read some people are playing like this but i'm not sure if it's in the official rules.

Thanks

Yes. You can carry as many small items as you want.

And here's some quotes from the rules that back that stance up:

The important question is: Is this card an Item when I put it into play? Though Items all have common aspects: A name, an ability (most often a combat bonus) a size (though only Big is ever written out) and a value (including the words No Value), the value is the easiest to recognize. If it has a value, it's an Item card, and can be put into play, assuming there are no special rules about having in play (called carrying) the type of Item that it is (like Big, or from other sets, Steeds, and Ships).

Thanks to you all, it pretty much answers my question. It's gonna be a game changer, not having to keep all those +2 in my hand...!
