The Thrift & Discount Stores

Before we had our Olive Garden dinner, we spent the afternoon shopping in thrift and discount stores. A follower was curious as to what I bought, so this is for Anni. The clothes are all from Goodwill, and under $4.00 each. Everything else is pretty much just as cheap.


This is a little Jelly Belly dispenser, complete with tiny scoop! The grandchildren will love it, and so do I!


These mugs are a birthday or Christmas gift for my cat loving friend.

And these are for me.

The sweaters are fabulous Ginny! And the rooster is so adorable! Oh, and a perfect bunny duo. The dispenser WILL be a fun item for the kids. Thanks for showing us.

my favorite item you bought is the bunny pitcher.. my favorite wearable item is the sweater you used in the header. all that detail work is amazing. I have never found anything in clothing for myself, but have bought shorts and shoes for Bob several times. once got 3 pair of cargo shorts that still had the tags on them for 4 each and a brand new pair of name brand boat shoes for 5 that sold for 79 new.... I have trouble finding things that fit my strange shape.

You have a MUCH better Goodwill then we do - I never find anything there. You are so lucky I love everything you bought and I like that first joke especially.

You found some fabulous treasures...I really, really like the bunny sugar and creamer and the rooster too.
I Think it might be time for me to take a trip to the thrift store too.
You find treasures...I find "stuff".

What a neat selection. You got some great finds there Ginny :) Those sweaters are really pretty. Love the bunny jars and the rooster, jelly beans always look so colorful and festive, and those mugs are neat too.
