$5 Spent!

Cheap stuff is good - good stuff for cheap is even better.  Here's what I found yesterday...


I think used books and magazines are some of the best deals out there - this stack includes four magazines and one cookbook - the cookbook alone retails for $30 and we all know how much magazines cost - there are two in the pile that are listed at $9.99 each - that's just crazy!!  I don't care that they're a few years old - they're new to me..    And with the little Butterfly Gold 401 bowl - it was even better - I paid $3 total at St. Vincent de Paul.



Stuff was pretty cheap at the Salvation Army - $2.20 for the spoon rest, two scarves, and two vintage cookbooks.  I didn't have a spoon rest, now I do - this is a cute old one that was made in Japan.  The cookbooks are from 1950 and 1958 - I haven't had time to go through any of the books yet - lots of neat recipes, I'm sure.  Salvation Army is the place to go for scarves - they had so many to pick from  and notice one is a Liz Clairborne - fancy!!!!!

Vintage Thingie Thursday and Flea Market Finds at Her Library Adventures have some great thrifting finds - click on the link and check them out!  I'm also linking up to Cap Creations for the first time - lots of goodies to check out there too!

    Great finds at super prices! The pyrex bowl is sweet. You are right about used books and magazines; they are usually super buys. The vintage cookbooks will be fun to look through.

    Great scarves! And of course the cute little Pyrex. 401 is my favourite size bowl.
