Sold This... Bought That

I sold this coffee table last night on craigslist. I don't think the buyer was too familiar with my city because I live on a one way street and when he left, he went the wrong way.

I went to the thrift store that was closing and didn't find anything I wanted. They had a couple of first edition Little Golden books but they were in too bad of shape. We then stopped at St Vinnies and I got this (plus I have some money left over)

The books, garbage can and shoes, I'm keeping. I have big feet and hardly ever find any shoes in my size. I know, I should buy new (my kids get new shoes)

Books for Ryker

and coffee mugs. I swore off buying them but I have a hard time leaving them behind. Except for the owl mug, these were brand new.

I love the Mona Lisa with a beard and mustache

I will be posting the mugs in my ebay store later today. Check out my other mugs here

Thrifty Thursday Finds

I walked over to the thrift store, the one I have been avoiding all week. I see they cleaned their carpet. I should have stayed home as there wasn't much to be found.

I dug through the plush bin and found this cat. They used to be sold at Michael's but they chose not to go forward with the line. His name is Coco.

Try as I might, I could not stay out of the glassware aisle and found this mug. It says "If you can't run with the big dogs, stay on the porch." It was pretty stained but I used a magic marker and it cleaned right up.

and the last thing I found was a leather jacket for myself. I have been wanting one for some time, but for some reason they are always priced to high for my liking. This one has a lot of wear but I feel it gives the jacket character. It is by Wilson's. I remember as a teen window shopping in their store and loving the smell of leather when you walked inside.

3M Bouncy Ball, Henry Dog and Other Stuff

When we were kids, we used to play in the 3M plant parking lot. They used to have all these rubber balls we would collect. they ranged in size from 1" to 3" The smaller balls were plentiful but the bigger ones were quite rare. I remember seeing who could bounce their ball the highest. Today, I went over to the thrift store and Ryker wanted this bag of balls. Inside was one of the bigger 3m balls. I haven't seen these in years. (no they probably are not worth anything...just memories)

Last week, not only did I find a Henry dog, but I found his girlfriend Henrietta. I got these at the half off sale.

Stitch from Lilo and Stitch

I always pick up these Scentsy plush pals and I sold him within 24 hours of listing

I also always pick up Folkmanis puppets. This ground hog sold within hours of listing for $29.99

Stepped out of my comfort zone and picked up this Tommy puffer jacket

I found this robotic vacuum some time ago. I haven't listed it yet on Ebay. I was hoping for a sale off Facebook

Kenny Plush Pal

I need to stop picking up coffee mugs but who can resist this smiley face one? bet it puts a smile on even the crankiest coworker

I'm tempted to keep this spice rack. It is still in it's original packaging but since I don't really cook, there is no point in keeping it.

Thrifty Finds

New color this week at the thrift store. Purple tags were half off.

Yes, those are granny panties sitting on my table. Some of them can go for big money. I put best offer on mine hoping I can get a good price.

I thought these bookends were cool.

I can't resist vintage aprons. I might put these in my Etsy shop.

Some vintage lacing blocks

More plush

Air Force coffee mug

Marine Corps mug

and of course, the granny panties

All items are available for sale in my Ebay store here

Thursday Thrifty Finds

It's been pretty cold here this week so I haven't ventured out until today. I found a few things for resale and some things to keep.

The steam buddy I am keeping and I can always use hangers. The barrel of monkeys and the toy vise grip is for Ryker. The rest I am putting on Ebay.

I couldn't resist the frog from Bugs Bunny. This one is a plush and doesn't sing. The Roger Rabbit is a window cling toy.

I always pick up the puffalumps from Fisher Price. The pots and pans are also from Fisher Price and I have to check to make sure they are not the recalled ones. Since it is missing the lid, spoon and blocks, I'll probably just piece it out for replacements.

I haven't checked out this Little Tikes toy and I'm not even sure what it is called. You push the blocks through their holes and the lights in the back light up and music plays.

I said I wasn't going to pick up any more coffee mugs, but I couldn't resist this Pilsbury Dough Boy one.

I will be listing these items later tonight in my Ebay store. If you are interested in anything, shoot me a message.
