Best thrift store finds

I know this has probably been discussed ad nauseum but I've only been here a month or so and haven't seen it yet. I was picking out some earrings from my jewelry chest today and just marveled at it. I've always wanted one of those, a chest that sits atop my dresser that has hangers for my few necklaces, a drawer that holds about fifteen rings and five other drawers for earrings and such. I could never afford one, they usually begin at $40! I was at Goodwill and saw this one for $2.99 and grabbed it! I get so much pleasure out of that silly jewelry chest. It makes me feel wealthy and decadent, even though the most valuable thing in it is a cheap little "I love Mom" necklace that my kids gave me about fifteen years ago--irreplaceable to me worth nothing to anyone else. Anyway, that's one of my best thrift store buys. Anyone else like to share their finds?

One of the best buys I've had recently was a brand new designer top, still with tags on for $8.I also bought my favorite Calvin Klien jeans in a thift shop.

I love it when I can find wonderful things like that! Don't you wonder, though, why people buy those things then don't wear them? They must have lots of money!!
