Sweet Salvation

I don't know about your Goodwill BUT mine's getting expensive. I feel bad even typing that because I KNOW it's for a good cause BUT when items that used to be .99 are now marked 2.99, that's a difference. There is new management at my local Goodwill and along with more expensive prices, the customers can no longer handle the case items, so I spend 5 minutes trying to explain the item I'd like handed to me, simply to take a closer look. Ok, enough complaining already (it's just that I am there at least 3x a week, so it begins to grate on ones nerves). BUT WAIT, I remember I have a Salvation Army 20 minutes away....haven't been there in about 5 months, maybe it's time to go back! I WISH I would've taken a pic of my overflowing cart. Maya says "Mommy, you're gonna have to put some of that stuff back, it's gonna be like $150.00" I replied "just wait and see". Checkout - $58 and some change! Maya was SHOCKED! I got some the the GREATEST finds! Vintage wooden hangers from various Chicagoland hotels and businesses that are no longer, a Miami Steamship wooden hanger and a lot of 20 wooden childrens hangers for .90! Now that's what I'm talkin about! I got this....
I have been on the hunt for one of these bad birds for several months! For $3.45 I am now the proud owner of her! I also got these....
I LOVE that someone took the time to paint and glitter these cardboard stars! Very soon you will see them in a FAB project...stay tuned! When I found them, this is what I saw....
There were about 30 of them in there for .95! Can we say S T E A L?!?! Hope y'all have a GREAT day! Exciting news coming your way soon!

I so agree with you on the prices going up in goodwills. We should stage a protest...or some way to be heard. I also think we need to stage a protest of sorts on HGTV. I so miss the days of watching them redecorate a room and how to's instead of watching real estate sell. Love the stars by the way! STEAL is right!!
