Thrifting

Sorry for the mini hiatus.  I've been working in a Kindergarten class all week and my nights have been filled with "honey-do" items and P90X.  Don't fret, however, I have quite a few things to blog once I get an opportunity to sit down and write them.  For now though, all I have time to do is show you my purchase from GW yesterday.

2 more brand new Target throws = 2.00 Total. <------
Yep, they weren't tagged and the lady behind the counter was ultra cool.
What a steal!
Sorry for the terrible pic....my phone just doesn't do their cuteness justice.

Thrifting

 In my last post I mentioned that you can find lots of brand new Target items at Goodwill.  Well, I wanted to show you what all I found at Goodwill yesterday so as to prove that I'm not pulling anyone's chain on this.  Here are a few brand new items I picked up yesterday from the lovely Goodwill...

Queen air matress (NIB) = $10
This is a little random, but ours popped and
I love a good bargain.

Curtain Rod (NIB) $6.00

Target blue throw pillows (NEW)= $5.00  
Still need a few other throws.  
Look @ August posing for the picture.  
He's so darn cute!
 

You'll love this- these are the exact same pillows I paid full price
 for a few months ago.  What!?!?

 Sprig of Hydrangeas = .10

H&M top = .85

Target dress & Hat =  $4.50
(I don't normally shop for clothes, but every once in a while
 something will catch my eye.  Like these. 
 Hat is new, dress is not, but I'm totally ok with that)

In addition to Goodwill, I really love thrifting in general- garage sales, craigslist....you name it.  There are some things you don't buy used (undergarments, pillows (remember, the ones I bought were new) and anything icky poo poo, but there is PLENTY that you can and spray paint works wonders.  I don't know what I'm going to do when my thrifting pal, Tooter (aka Grandma), isn't around to go with anymore.  It makes me sad to even think about, but I feel slightly better knowing that we'll always have this pastime together.

Oh and p.s.
The Goodwill Outlet was a trip!  If you've ever been to one then you know it's cut throat.  Not sure if that kind of thrifting is my cup of tea.
