I had to run a bunch of errands today and since I was near a Goodwill store (thrift store if you aren't from the US), I just had to stop in. I had intended to stay only 30 minutes but you know how it is when one starts...

For those of you who remember my post about what I did on my birthday, I wanted to share the deals I got. I had $80 to spend at the 3 thrift stores I was going to on my birthday. The money I had to spend was from my eBay...

I am so excited: I am heading out to the thrift stores today.
I used to go one day each week and hit 3 to 4 thrift stores each time, buying clothing and shoes to resell on eBay. Once Covid hit, I dropped that down to only one...

Yesterday afternoon, I heard a big crash when my husband Chuck was away at the gym. I thought it sounded like giant icicles crashing down outside on our front porch. So I didn't really pay much attention.
It was actually the...

One of my favorite thrift stores gives a 50% off birthday coupon for up to $25.00 off, which means you can buy $50.00 worth of stuff, and only have to pay $25.00! My birthday was last week, but I couldn't go until yesterday. I had...

I got sick of the vast empty white space of my apartment walls. I don't really have much to use in the way of decorating them. Posters have not held up very well in the multiple moves these past few years, most of my artwork is...

A couple of days ago, I had my mind made up. I was not going to tolerate my generic coffee makers anymore.
Mind you, it was below 25 temperature-wise.
I had my mind set on a thrift store near me. January is half-off month...

Is what I need. I got rid of some that I no longer needed, and now I need to go and get some that I will actually wear.
I did get a pretty brown top the other day, and I almost got a pink one to go along with it but I wasn't...

I received my second book from the book of the month club. I do have a picture of it but I can't be bothered to go to the hassle of uploading it. (I have to upload it to facebook, save it to my laptop and then upload it here.)...

I took a nap as I was falling asleep on the computer this morning. I planned to go to the thrift store today to replenish my dwindling wardrobe. Now, mind you, I haven't been to a thrift store in many years. Most of my shopping...

I was about to write about charity stores when I realised they are not called that in other countries. In the US I believe they are called Thrift stores, places where second hand goods are sold.
When my kids were little I didn't...

I decided to go into one of the local thrift stores and found a wonderful deal. It was a total surprise, because I just went in there to browse.
I have been wanting to replace some of my KitchenAid appliances, that I once owned,...

The bowl pictured here may not be crystal and might not even be worth more than the dollar that we paid for it in a thrift store, but we like it!
Not being experts about such things, this and some other crystal items and more...

We started out with the local Post Office and Staples and then headed across town to Ollies. I love this store and don’t get to go that often. We were probably there for at least a couple hours. There is so much to see.
I...

We have a local thrift store/food pantry that gets the best donations of items! Designer bags, which need a close inspection, really nice bakeware and dishes.
I personally have enough at home but like to look for a treasure just...

One of my favorite things to do is to go to a Thrift Store. What treasures you can find if you have a couple hours to browse. It's like a mini-vacation away from the cares of the day.
Recently, I found this nice little silver...
