Yes, You Too Can Be A Jedi Master! Or At Least A Thrifty One!

Here it is.....I grabbed it the other day at the thrift store....Don't hate me because I am cheap thrifty.

It's 2 pieces and I was trying to figure out how to take the top off....

Please advert your eyes from the '65 VW Bus that Mr. Smith sewed a lovely cover for out of old sheets.


What is that?  A price tag?  From Restoration Hardware (clue people the nearest one is almost 4 hours away-just saying).

What??? Another price tag????? Restoration Hardware again?

Amazing because I only paid.....

For both!  I told you that I am a Master!

That's right $9.99!

Sometimes I amaze myself-just being honest people!

If you frequent thrift stores and garage sales like I do (all the time-the thrift store workers know my name and I know theirs)- you too can pick up a good deal-that is unless I have already been there!


Wait-Please don't go!  I promise I won't find another great steal deal anytime soon-ok I lied I will probably find something great next week too!

    I find it easier for you to do my shopping and then I just pick them up at Oregon Street Antiques. ;-)

    You are a Jedi. That is a sweet score. I'm beginning to think my thrift store is in the wrong zip code. All I seem to find is yard sale cast-offs. *sigh* I shall continue the training, Master.
