April Thrifting

Most of the "thrifting" I will do in the month of April will be getting clearance and sale items for Firstborn's first apartment.  Yesterday I bought him some soap, shampoo, towels, rug, and a shower curtain.  But recently, I had a fun day shopping with no particular plan in mind.
At HomeGoods I found wrapping paper for $1, some scented votives for $5, and this gorgeous tablecloth for $15.  
 
It's not going to stay a tablecloth for long - it's destined to cover the seats of my mother's kitchen chairs.  At the Chinese grocery store I bought Sriracha and my favorite soaps, then visited the cafe next door for Spicy Garlic Eggplant - so good.   And at Salvation Army I found a large canning jar, a like-new silverware tray, and this sweet lidded pottery dish - total spent there was $4 and tax.
A fun day out bopping around, wasting all kinds of time.  I sure needed that!

  1. Those are great finds Gina! I just want to check on you! I know you live in Texas and it's a big state, so I am not sure how close you are to the disaster. But I hope you and all of your family are safe and sound and I am so sorry to read about this in Texas. So sad for that town! Take care! Angie xoxo
