I've said it before and I’ll say it again, I LOVE SHOPPING! There’s something special and exciting about thrift stores and yard sales; giving a new life to something that’s already been used and let’s not forget getting good deal$!
For me, the actual shopping experience is where the fun is. Getting up early on a Saturday morning with a list of yard sales and hitting the road not knowing what you’re going to find is never boring! I like meeting strangers as I look through their unwanted items and negotiate prices.

If you're keeping up with the blog then you know last week I went
to a new thrift store. If you're not keeping up, go back and
check it out. Today I listed my funky find of a green vase on
eBay from last week. If you want to get in on the bidding war
check out the auction by clicking on the picture of the vase.
It's a fabulous vase but it's been sitting on my desk for a week all lonely and unappreciated so it's time to let it loose and allow it to explore the world. More importantly, it's time to make more room on my desk for new purc..
Last week I noticed a sign for a new thrift store on my way home from work and today was the day I got to check it out!
