So, I haven't been to any garage sales since it's winter and I don't get to go to the thrift store as much as I use to because I don't like to get the baby out in this cold. But last night I had to go to the Goodwill to try and find things that my daughter could wear in her school play as a costume. I thought I would share some of the gems that I seen.
First I will start with something that I thought was adorable.
I love creative ice cream sundae bowls/glassware. I don't know why, as I really don't eat alot of ice cream. These were by Oneida and selling for $1.99 a piece. The plates next to them looked like dessert plates that went with these also by Oneida selling for $2.99 a piece. This Goodwill is expensive and no sales or half off days.
Next Up...
I don't know why I took a picture of this. I think it's because whenever I see items like this, I wonder who bought it? Why did they buy it? I wish I could know the stories behind the items.
This duck looks so sad
I had to take a picture of this because it still had the garage sale sticker on it for .10 cents but the Goodwill was selling it for $1.49. I guess if you snooze you lose.
This made me laugh. I think it's one of those plastic bag holders lol.

funny - The Goodwills near me are also kind of expensive for a thrift store! Like you said they never have sales, etc. I tend to only shop at the more local thrift stores now. You can truly find steals & deals at them! :)

The closest Goodwill in my area is also pretty expensive. Love your pictures!
ReplyDeleteI think the duck is smiling!
ReplyDeleteI agree, I think if GW is going to put a higher price on things they need to at least remove the garage sale tags and the Dollar Store stickers!
Oooo! I would totally buy that Texas Short Beer mug, and here's why. 1. I am from Texas. 2. It would hold lots of beer. 3. I would be the hit of the party! Nuff said :)
ReplyDeleteI love taking pictures of the cool stuff we can only find in thrift stores :D
ReplyDeleteLike your comment about the .10 cent pail. My local thrift stores will mark up a Forever 21 blouse and leave the designer labels at the normal going rate. Go figure!
ReplyDeleteI think we should start a letter writing campaign to lower Goodwill prices lol.
ReplyDeleteI love goodwill and go there all the time. Their prices have gone up though. Love the old bag holder.
ReplyDeleteI think the duck is sad because he's stuffed in to a dress!! :D tried to follow but blogger was being picky-I'll come back later
