Estate Sale Finds

I have been trying to put myself on a thrifting diet as of late.  I decided to do this for two reasons.  First I need to take care of what I already have .  Second I need to spend less money.

 

Sooo, I have stopped even looking for sales that start on Friday.  I have completely given up that day.  This is big let me tell you.  Friday is the best day to go to sales in our small town.

Well I wanted to go out on Saturday but again didn't want to spend any money.  So I slept in and took only twenty dollars and went to just 1 estate sale .  Oh I got there 3 hours after it opened.

 

I went with daughter number 2 who is 11 years old.  Figuring it would A. be dead and B. be picked over I figured I would be ok and have money left over.

 

Wrong!!  On both accounts.

First I found this vintage egg basket full of dried gourds for $6.00.  I will probably throw out the gourds and then give the basket a bath.

I then found these vintage lusterware salt and pepper shakers for $3.00

This is my favorite find of all 6 vintage red polka dot and white striped drinking glasses for $4.00

This set was $3.00 and has cute little dogs on them.

This was $1.00

And so was this carpenter's ruler.

This book from 1941 was just $2.00.

It is just chocked full for photos.

All this came to exactly $20.00.

 

Then we were leaving and I found this on a table outside marked $3.00 so i dug deep and asked if he would take $2.00, he did!!!  Yea!!!!

I could have spent much much more at this sale and there were a ton this weekend in our area that I wish I could have went to.

 

Oh well there is always next week.
