$3.91

Cheap fun! My weekly trip to the Salvation Army cost me $1.91. I got the lace, the rubber stamp and the stocking organizer. Plus I saw some friends and we laughed a lot.

Then I dropped by the First Christian Church thrift store which is open 2 days a week and found the beautiful creamer with old fashioned roses on it - $2.00. There must be seven gals who work there and it's fun to see them all, even the produce guy from my grocery store volunteers there so I saw him too. Just fun, a real upper. All for $3.91. You can't beat that! Diane

Wow, what great treasures you found and for so little money. That rubber stamp will come in handy...new ones aren't cheap!
So glad you enjoyed your day Diane. xx

I'd say it was worth the $3.91 just to see all those lovely people and visit. ;c)

Oh I wish we had some of those stores around here. In Hendersonville, where George's parents live, they have a really nice Goodwill Thrift Store... I try to stop there sometimes. BUT--usually we don't have enough time. OH Well... I love your purchases, especially the creamer. Gorgeous!!!
Hugs,
Betsy
