Sir Thrift-A-Lot: Thrift Share Monday!

Thrift Share Monday

In the snowiest day of the year so far, we thrift.
Driving through the city at 40 miles an hour, we thrift.
(not pictured - mint #441 Blue Horizon from Value Village)

Vintage 1966 Linus & Lucy figures. Generally not a fan of Charlie Brown, but I couldn't say no. They were in two different bags of random toys, one had 7 iDogs in it, for $2.99 each. These are going on my new toy shelf located in the bedroom.


An amazing orphan shaker - vintage pink deer. My how I want the set now, you can buy them for me on eBay RIGHT HERE for $39.00 even or a starting bid of $10.99 with a BIN for $25.00 RIGHT HERE. A pair recently sold for $3.24 & another for $29.99. I cannot wait to own them! I paid 99cents for this little guy.



Does anybody else go look up the price of things on eBay when they get home after buying them? I'm just always so curious!

Sir Thrift-A-Lot: Flea Market Finds


Sir Thrift-A-Lot

in Flea Market Finds with Her Library Adventures.

Not very vintage this week, but here's what came home with me:

A set of "Here lies salt, here lies pepper" gravestone shakers that were new in the package from Value Village. Also from Value Village, a canister of "creative pegs" or mini-clothespins made by Mollettine & retail for $18.75. I bought them in a bag full of junk along with a Rubix Cube keychain in need of repairs, two sets of Hematite magnetic gemstones & a bunch of other unmentionables. From a bag at Talize for $1.99 some Transformers & Spiderman cupcake cups & a very neat set of adjustable Hershey's measuring spoons. Lastly, a nice little owl mug picked up awhile ago set to be sold in my etsy store.

I am hoping this week will have a little more vintage in store.
