Caboodles and Containers

I can't seem to stop buying these useful pieces of plastic. I think I have only sold two or three in all my years of reselling. They sit forever and yet I can not pass them up. On Monday, my sister and I went to the thrift store downtown and there on the shelf was a purple and green one. It was packed with beads and some sewing notions. Since I'm not a crafter, I sold the beads on Facebook for $5



I also found some vintage plastic kitchen containers. They are actually a mint green but for some reason, the photos turned out blue.


You can find both of these items in my Ebay store here

Thrifty Thursday Finds

I hadn't been to the thrift store all week so I thought I'd find some good stuff today. I found a couple of things but nothing spectacular. They did have a end table of sorts with an Eagle on it that was kind of cool but they wanted $25 for it. Maybe if I can get something to sell tonight, I will go back tomorrow to get it.

I thought this Barbie Caboodles was pretty neat. Back in December, one sold at auction for around $60. I wonder if it was a Christmas present?



Some kitchen items:

Euro Chopper It's missing the storage container and lid. I'm almost positive I saw it in another area and I should have looked at it more closely. Maybe it will still be there tomorrow.




Mirro cookie press: I have sold a couple of these before but it may not be the right time of year to sell now.



I usually do not pick up Wilton cake pans because the t.s. prices them to high but I got this one with 2 inserts.





and last but not least, vintage Star Wars fitted twin sheet




all of these great items are up for auction in my Ebay store here.

Thrifting Finds

I have not been to GW all week but I did stop at the thrift store on Tuesday. I found a Batman costume for Ryker and some other things.

The Batman mask came in Ryker's happy meal. I asked him if he wanted to go to Bethesda to see if they had a Batman costume. They had the jump suit but no cape.



Two weeks ago, we found a Woody and Buzz Lightyear costume



I found a Caboodle. These can go for good money on Ebay. Especially one with a lot of trays. I guess crafters use them.







This second caboodle I found at the same store a few weeks ago. Both are for sale in my Ebay store.





and of course some stuffed animals.

If you press her paw, she sings "How Much Is That Doggy



I thought this monkey looked like Curious George



and a vtg Dakin St Bernard. He is missing his barrel.


Last but not least is this cute puppy planter I thought would sell in my FB garage sale group but no one has shown any interest.
