Latest Treasures


"Specially Hand Made by Mother". That's the label I found on this quilted piece that I purchased yesterday. My favorite thrift store has an outlet store near our house and I stopped in there yesterday when I was out for a walk. At the outlet store, all the rejects from the other stores are thrown into bins and everyone just picks through them to find what they want. You might think there is a lot of useless junk - and some of it is - but there are some very nice things too. They are sold by weight starting at $1.59 a pound.

In addition to the quilted piece, I got two placemats, a toy dinosaur, a toy car, and some owl "goofy goggles". Total price for all my riches: $1.27. How can you beat that?
