I took advantage of being in the right area of town to visit a couple of thrift stores on Burnet Road. {I called it my little sussie for donating blood that day.} It's as good an excuse as any to bop around the thrift stores and eat lunch out. I highly recommend the Kimchi Fries here. I don't regret one bite.
Silk ties for $1 each at The Assistance League. Wonder if Hubby realizes I am partial to buying him red ties?
A crochet doily for $3, tiny frame for $1.50, Murano glass stopper for $2, and that strange cross stitch book mark - I have a mind to re-donate that. I also found books for 50 cents each - until our neighborhood library re-opens I guess I will have to find paperbacks in the thrift stores.
At Savers I found a cute bunny couple, and a BRAND NEW pair of Keds for $10. Never been worn! These retail for $40 on Zappos - I know because I was on the wait list for these exact ones in black!
The little bunny couple cracked me up. They will go into my Easter stash and come out to dance in my china cabinet next Spring.
