It was a great day for thrifting - I have lots of vintage finds to share over at
Vintage Thingie Thursday - I bet lots of other people found some great treasures in the past few days too...
My first stop of the day - there wasn't much I was interested in but I didn't leave empty handed..
 |
Was I surprised when I saw these wrapped up in an elastic band - they're Vera napkins - the newer ones that have never used - I paid $1
I found two Eloise Wilkin illustrated books, both the same, I bought the both, for $1 |
 |
On to Value Village |
 |
| I didn't buy any of these - the bowls were in bad shape, the white Butterprint wasn't turquoise, it was green and the turquoise one had so many scratches and it was $4.99 - why, I don't know, look at what I bought on the same shelf for $2.99. Maybe it didn't catch their eye that this one was Pyrex! |
 |
| It was this Terra 474 that I paid $2.99, it has a few scratches, but now I have one piece and that's probably all I need! |
 |
| This is probably the worst looking piece of Pyrex that I've ever bought - I worked hard on it this morning, it looks much better..... |
 |
| I'm giving this 045 to Carla - she has some other Butterfly Gold |
 |
This might look like a cooler - no, it's a breadbox!! I don't really know where I'm going to put it but I'll put something in it. The handle is broken but I HAD to buy it, you know how expensive these things are in the antique shops, it was $2.99. The lady behind me at the cash, wondered why she hadn't seen that, because I had it in my cart, that's why!!
A syrup dispenser for 99 cents

 |
| An Inuit mug - I had good luck selling an Inuit designed scarf the other week, I'm hopeful for this to sell. |
 |
| I know there's plenty of Care Bear fans out there... |
 |
A Totes rain scarf, claimed by Carla.
And then, on to the Salvation Army Thrift Store... |
 |
| I liked this scarf because it was long and just the right size, I've never seen a scarf like this at Old Navy, it says it's from Fall 08, I paid 25 cents. And, I also paid 25 cents for this Vera scarf. |
 |
| Tim Horton's Coffee Mug |
 |
Strawberry Shortcake Birthday invitations, not opened
Last stop - not one purchase - nothing!! I was on such a roll, it would have been nice to find at least one more treasure, but I'm not complaining. |
