    Default Goodwill steal!

    I was looking at the costume jewelry tray because my 4.5 yr old dd has been wanting a ring. One of them caught my eye, and I bought it for $1.99. It had multicolored gemstones in the shape of a butterfly. After our Goodwill trip, I stopped at a local jewelry store to see if they would buy some old gold that I didn't want any longer. I left the store $240 richer, with a free sizing on the butterfly ring. It's 14k! The owner estimated it's value around $250! Not bad!
