Some Fun Finds

On Wednesday I had not planned on going any where. Then I was looking through the Albertson's circular and they had a few deals that along with some coupons I had- would make it worth the trip. Well since I would be in town then a trip by the local GW would be in order. Well as I was catching up with my friends on facebook - I noticed where a friend said that there was a large garage sale in the same town and actually only a few blocks from GW. So I decided to add the garage sale to my list of things to do while I was out.

I found something that I thought was cool. And old phone - It is a Radio Shack - I found a similar one on Internet and they said it was from 1982. You can't see it very good but in the center - there is a photo of a Victorian lady. Well I guess her head only. We have a few vintage phone things on a shelf in our sun room - so when I can get the ladder in there I will be putting this phone up next to that stuff. Oh and the best part - it was only $2.00!
I also found an awesome Tupperware container with it's lid or $1.00! I LOVE to find Tupperware pieces - that are in good shape and cheap.

Next stop -Goodwill! As I walked up to some shelving units - I thought to myself - "I have hit the jackpot!!! Before me on the shelf were about 20+ Avon bottles!! WooHoo!! Well you will be proud of me, I showed some restraint. I did not buy them all.


I looked through them and picked my favorites -at kept the price at about $10.00. I love the pink flowers on this clock - I love details like that.





I loved this blue bottle - it was only $1.00 - it has a cork as part of the lid - thought that was interesting.



I had seen a bottle like this one at the Antique Mall and had just not wanted to pay the price they had on it. But I love it - so I was happy to find it cheaper.



I thought this pear was pretty. The detail on the pear is really neat.



This flower - was sitting with the metal thing sticking up. And had thought it was flower but did not figure it out that it was this detailed of a flower - till I got home and was looking at my bottles. I was so happy to find all this detail.

Well I found a few good deals at Albertson's but nothing cool enough to take photos of..lol.




So that is how I spent part of one of my days off this week. I hope that you all are doing good. Until next time - take care. :o)
