He's found a Coach leather briefcase for a few dollars (then sent to Coach to have restored for $20) he gave his bro. for graduation, for us Mulholland Bro. luggage, tons of fancy clothes and suits and shoes, a silver cross stroller we needed, etc. You just have to be consistent. So fun to beat the system!Ruthiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16333846099836065102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6210913620206544383.post-67162083783803538092008-05-28T21:02:00.000-07:002008-05-28T21:02:00.000-07:00YAY for Savers!

Otherwise I walk right by something and don't even remember I need it (like a water pitcher or a hand soap dispenser or something.)<BR/><BR/>I bought a cast iron pan there the other day for $1.00 and I'm using it almost every morning to make my eggs. Good deal!Tiennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13315891571577431883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6210913620206544383.post-72622914627288849232008-05-23T12:44:00.000-07:002008-05-23T12:44:00.000-07:00"We Help Daddy" was one of our kids favorite Littl..."We Help Daddy" was one of our kids favorite Little Golden Books!

I have a horrible time finding anything reasonable or useful, especially when looking at kids clothes. I've all but given up at this point - it seems like all I find is stained and excessively worn stuff, no matter where I go! I read about other people's thrift store finds and I wish I could have the same sort of success, but the only good find I've ever made at a thrift store was a very nice Banana Republic sweater that I bought for $5.Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12689104216675201913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6210913620206544383.post-64255214248148297802008-05-22T18:33:00.000-07:002008-05-22T18:33:00.000-07:00My word, I am jealous of those botanical prints!! ...My word, I am jealous of those botanical prints!!
