A Few Buys This Week

I went to the Attic Thrift Store on Wednesday. I spent $2.50 - I spent $1.00 for a Foregin Military looking scarf, two books for DS for $1.50 and a keychain from Venusula for 10¢ for DS. Went to the Salvation Army twice this week. I got a Teddy Bear that makes noises like inside the womb for 75¢ and a Hawaiian Sugar Buddie doll from C&H Sugar for 75¢. I didn't buy anything the second time. DH works next door to the Salvation Army, so I find myself down there quite often.

Today I went to the Dollar Tree and they had just filled up the scrapbooking section with all new stuff. Ack! I bought 26 things. That's $26.00! But, the same things at Hobby Lobby would have been at least $3.00 each and I would NOT have bought them at that price. I got my latest order from Snapfish today, so I have lots of pictures to scrapbook. (I always made fun of scrapbooking - but I do enjoy it!)

I saw a sign for a Yard Sale tomorrow. I think it's at a house where this guy has a sale twice a year and only sells fishing, hunting and tool items. Not my speed. But, it's a good sign - Spring Sales are on the way.

My Flea Market is picking up - rent was due yesterday too. I need to find some nice tall backless shelves to put in the window so I can load them with things. Lord knows I have the things!

    Hey Shara,

    Could you maybe check freecycle.org for shelves? It's a community where people give things away for free, and it's based on locals.

  2. Thanks Nicole. I had thought of that but hadn't done it yet. I did put a post on Freecycle on Tuesday night - had a response Wednesday morning and DH is picking them up today. Thanks!
