thrift store finds

I had a great shopping trip at Value Village a week ago.  I have really been finding some great deals there lately. 

Liz Claiborne white sandals – $1.99

Set of 4 brown placemats – 99¢ each.

Set of 4 white napkins – 49¢ each.  Have really needed some new white napkins and these are practically brand new and in great condition!

I was so excited about these pillows!!  They are the perfect colors for my living room and at $2.49 – definitely a great deal!  So much better than $15+ prices in the stores. 

Target pillows

I do have to tell you a funny story though.  I picked them off the rack and they were facing this way.  I sat there for several seconds trying to figure out if they were antlers or what in the world the design was??  Ha!  Then I flipped them the right way Smile

Also picked up this black pillow for 99¢.  I had just startted specifically looking for some black accent pillows to go in my guest/craft room on the daybed in there so this was a huge blessing!

Large basket – $1.01.  I think my little kitty has already claimed it for his bed Smile

Stopped at a quick yard sale and picked up these 2 milk glass pieces.

As much as I love milk glass I really have quite the collection that I have picked up for super cheap at yard sales.  But I keep my eyes out for some specific/unusual pieces (still looking for a cake plate) or for things that are dirt cheap – like 25¢ each.

So what did you find?

    Great score for you! I have started looking for pillows to use as is or to use as pillow forms and I found 3 this week at this amazing yard sale! I got all 3 for $1.50! Thanks again for the pillow ‘tip’!

    I wish we had one of those stores here in Ohio. I can’t believe some of the awesome deals
    you get. I just love how you pick up this and that and you always know how to put it all
    together. Great job! Love your blog.
