First I spied this plate that is a match for the ones I have that were aunt toots's - it was $0.50 and even though they only had one I bought it - it's churchill dinnerware and seems to be pretty durable and it's pink - so now I have 4 matching plates.
Then while at the thrift store I saw these boxes of A2 envelopes and while I don't really have a need for 1000 envelopes at $0.50/box I couldn't resist getting all 4 - mom do you need any envelopes? The white is more of a cream now but they still stick.
And now for my silliest purchase of the day...
yup I bought this old school desk for $.50 too it was supposed to be $8 but since it was green day and had a green sticker at the salvation army thrift store it was actually $.48. Before jono even reminds me we don't have anyone to sit in it - it was so cheap, in good shape, and adorable - so I didn't care. So until there are any little joneses it will just hang out lonely in my extra bedroom.Kelli found some clothes and toys for lucy and i think she spent less than $10 - so it was all around good.

Wow! You rock!!
yay!! great finds!! love the desk :) what to come to ohio one morning and come saling with me?!?!
I stopped in the house yesterday to get some clothes and saw this and wondered where the hell it came from! I knew I could find the answer on here. =)
The plate is so cool! I used to have a desk like that when I was little. I did homeschooling for a bit, and it was fun "playing school," but then I still had to take tests and such, so it wasn't as fun any more. :)
I am still wondering what you are going to do with that desk, but I have to admit 50 cents is a bargain. - Kelli
