Thrift Share Monday

Was able to do a little thrifting and hit a few estate sales this past week. Here are some of my recent finds:

Remember the comic strip Cathy? The All-American Women who could do it all...well, with a little help from her Mom. Here is a vintage mug from 1983 that I found at the Goodwill. After my The Far Side mug did so well I hope that this mug does equally as well. Would have been perfect for Mother's Day too bad I did not find it sooner.

Also, I found a rather large collection of Little Golden Books including two mini My First Little Golden Books from the 80's, many first editions from the 70's until 2004. I just listed them on eBay last night and I already have gotten a bid. Happy!

Here are the beautiful Italian Coasters I spoke about on my last post in the original box from the 60's or 70's. I haven't listed them yet...tempted to keep them for myself. Picked them up for I think $4 and they sold in the past on eBay for $40.

Thank you for checking out my items and please leave some comments about the items or my blog. Can't wait to check out everyone's shares. 

Happy Thrifting,

Jenn

Took a couple of hours while the kids were in school today to shop a couple of Goodwills. Didn't buy anything...a big step for me! Was actually looking for chest or furniture piece to hold all my resale items such as tissue paper, thank you notes, boxes, tape and of course any items for sale that would fit. Didn't find anything that fit the bill for home use or resale. Want shop more garage/yard sales on Friday as I think there will be more items that fit the bill for home and resale. Saturday is hard for me to go out and shop early in the morning, my husband has a men's group that he has participated in for years that is not over with until 10 or so.  Saturday is the 50% off day at Goodwill so maybe garage/yard sale on Friday and Goodwill later on Saturday. What do you find works best for your thrifting and family life?


Have a great midweek Wednesday,
Jenn
