    Sounds like you did really well!

    I haven't had a really good haul at a thrift shop, although I went to my fav for clothes and cloth stuff the other day. Got 8 linen napkins and a doiley for $2.25 or .25 each!

    Wow..you did great......the cheapest books at ours are .99......so I go to the library for those.....only a quarter. I won't even look at the books, so I am not tempted.
    Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.

    I only wonder how things can lose their... er... expensiveness. Without losing their quality! And what is required? Just some time. On the other hand, there is a sort of things that lose some of their qualities as time goes by, but they get even more expensive themselves. And what is absolutely inexplicable, we may speak of the very same things. Books or toys, for example
