    Cool Today's Thrifty Treasures 9/19

    ~Did anyone else go thrifting this morning?
    Went to my favorite thrift seller this morning and got:
    * 2 pairs of Mary Jane's for dd
    *a chair for the kitchen
    *18 clothing items including sweaters, tops, shorts, tights
    *a strawberry ceramic
    And my favorite item of all: a new looking LL Bean Primaloft winter coat for ds! I've been looking for a coat for him for 8 months!
    And best of all, I paid only $3 for it all!~

    Great deals. Great find on the coat. LL Bean is a great brand also.
