The Thrift Store nearest to me is called
LAST CHANCE THRIFT STORE
Thursday is Senior Day and 30% off
(I more then qualify for this discount)
I am linking up to two of my favorite parties
The Darling Debbie of Debbiedoos
and the Lovely Laurie
After staying away from the thrifts for days I stopped in
thinking I wouldn't find much as pickings have been
pretty slim lately...I did find a few things
What is that? A pink Watering Can?
Oh yes to go with my Pink birdhouse!
I love it and $1.49 after my discount
(it has rust on it also!)
A cute little salt and pepper shaker
Bunny and cabbage! Total of both 60 cents
This silver piece will show up for Silver Sunday
I hope to find out something about it
Some kitchen items
Meat tenderizer and ice cream scoop in aluminum
The red Christmas Spatula was new with tag
and will show up in someone's stocking!
I got another skirt hanger to use for Place Mats
(see that post here)
A couple of books and a children's book for a friend
Not bad for a slow Thursday!
I have mentioned a few times that I have done the
World's Longest Yard Sale
Suzy and her friend Beth are both turning 50
and have decided to go this year and have a blast
They are blogging about it and asked me some
questions about my experience
You can read my interview here
Some of you might know Suzy from her other blog
I am going to have some exciting things coming up this next week so be sure to check back!
Always,
Linda

That pink watering can is so cute!! I can't wait to see that silver polished up! Hope you are having a great evening!
Pretty watering can, cute Xmas spatula, and I hope this means you're going to the longest yard sale! Going over to read that interview right now!
Happy Weekend!

Oh Linda, love the watering can, it's darling! You always find the neatest things. I love little salt and pepper shakers, I use to collect them and quit. Those are so cute! I'd like to go shopping with you some day! How about it?
Hugs,
Nancy
Fabulous finds Linda! Love the pink watering can, and it does look great with the bird house, and the s/p shakers are just too cute! I thought I'd seen everything having to do with Christmas decor, but I've never seen a Christmas spatula - how neat! Thank you for linking these treasures to Favorite Things Sat. (Oh, I would love to go to the World's Longest Yard Sale!) laurie
LIke that pink watering can. Oh and the bunny!

Pretty darned good, I'd say, Linda. Hey! Meant to tell you that I like your patriotic blog background. Very cute! Susan
I really like your thrift sweet items! That bunny s/p set is too cute.
I love thrifting. It is always so much fun! Happy weekend! Anne
Girl, you did great! I am in love with that pink watering can. In fact, I love it all.
Can't wait to see what you will show us next.
hugs

I love your watering can, how fun! Awhile back when I was shopping at the Goodwill, the girl who checked me out (she couldn't have been a day over 19!), asked me if I was a senior citizen! I'm 40 something!! I didn't know weather to laugh or cry! I consoled myself by telling myself she didn't even look up at me when she asked (at least I hope she didn't!).
OK, pass the pink watering can...I love it!!
Carol
I want that pink watering can. Now. It would be the perfect gift for my cousin who is OBSESSED with pink. Are you selling? Seriously.
oh you got some awesome finds..........that pink watering can is awesome!
Hi Linda Sweetie...
Oh my gosh what on earth? You found a beautiful little watering can that is pink. My eyes could not believe what they were seeing. How sweet that is.
I love you ice cream scoop. It looks like a really nice one at that. I am always collecting the darn things. I don't know what I am going to do with them all, but I love them just the same.
I can NOT believe that you have been to the Longest Yard Sale. Oh my gosh. I will be checking that link out for sure. I so envy you. I have always wanted to go. One day perhaps? DH said we would have to rent a U-Haul to bring home all the junk I would see, but what fun it would be. Please think of me while you are out and about, and have some fun for me okay? Oh what a glorious time for you.
Thank you for sharing sweetie. I love this post. Have a beautiful weekend.
Country hugs and much love...Sherry
I always forget which day is senior discount day..fun finds and the silver dish has a cool shape:)
Oh Man...I sooooo want to go to the longest garage sale... I'm jealous!!! Can't wait to see what awesome goodies you will find...
Happy weekend.
Warmly,
deb :)
Soo cute, I really like the salt and pepper shakers, of course the watering can is darling as well. Are you going to the world's longest yard sale? It runs right through Chattanooga and we might be able to meet! Hope you have a great weekend.
Hi Linda! Great fnds! That pink watering can is cute and so are the S&P shakers! Don't you love Senior Day? lol Happy weekend...hugs...Debbie
I'd love a shop called 'Last Chance' - you just know there'd be bargains there!
Just visiting from debbiedoos party! I so want to go to the longest yard sale!! You found some cute items at the thrift store!
Yeah, it's about time to go back to the thrifts--I got so mad at them for their outrageous prices that I stopped going but without me they've probably gone out of business, LOL! I ALWAYS forget about Senior Day but fortunately at Goodwill every day is Senior Day (just like in my actual life). Is that the Yard Sale that starts in Alabama? I keep meaning to go but now people are saying the prices are getting too high and it's so crowded. It sure would be fun to go with some fellow junkers, though! PS--I hate to admit it, but I totally covet your pink watering can . . .
Well first, let me just tell you it was good to finally get your posting back on my blog. Apparently blogger is fixed and my MIA posts' are reappearing for me:)
Just wanted to stop by and see what you've been up to.
I adore that little pink watering can! I happen to collect old watering cans and I just think this is the best find!
Terry
What beautiful treasures you turned up! I'm trying to stay out of the thrift stores right now because I don't need anything. But, if I went and saw treasures like the ones you found, like you, I couldn't turn them down either. And that World's Longest Yardsale goes through our Alabama neck of the woods too! Such temptations for the weak!
Sherry @ A Happy Valentine
You are such a thrifty chick girlie!!!
I love your finds and now you'll be the envy of the neighborhood with your PINK watering can :)
I would be SO in heaven at the longest yard sale. I would either die of excitement or run out of money within the first 100 yards! haha!
Hope you are enjoying your weekend Linda~
:)
all of the items are great i need to take a class in how to become a better "hunter" at better prices. have a good day.
I just fell in love with that cure pink watering can!!
Debbie
Linda, cute finds and I would love to go on that longest yard sale trip sometime. My mom and step dad went a few years ago and she did not find anything. I don't think she knew what to look for. I am sure I would find plenty.
I think it would be fun if the GA blog gals took a trip to the longest yard sale.
Joyce
Linda you always find the coolest things. I never have the patience to look through stuff. I am thinking about going to an auction tomorrow in Columbus, wanna join me?
What lovely finds! Too cute. I really loved the pink watering can. Lucky you.
Great finds! I so want to go to the longest yard sale, but money is tight!
I am so loving that red spatula..oh my goodness gracious.
Love the watering can!!! Boy I wish I could go to the worlds longest garage sale!!! That sounds like my kinda fun.
:) Michelle
