Have to brag about my buys
I just had to tell someone about my buys from Friday. I first went to Goodwill, we finally got one. There I found this
and I got it for $30. The cheapest I have found online is $190. I needed this because ironing is really hard on my back with the fibro.
The second thing I found is a large dough bowl for $6.50. I am tickled about this also. I have been wanting one for a long time.
I actually have to say I have found more things this year than I have in the past couple of years.Jeanna

Call me naive but what is it? Even the picture doesn't help me.
I'm glad you found something you needed at a great price.

Great find. I had never seen one before.Believe me when you have fibro the pain is so bad, just brushing your hair hurts. So this will help so much with less ironing. Oh and the dough bowl sounds great,love primitive and old stuff.

people or things.

I want a good goodwill
When I lived in Kansas there was great one close to my house. Small but great. Moved here and I've only been in once, priced WAY too high, cheaper to shop at walmart.

Thanks everyone. Our Goodwill store is only a couple of months old. I have found quiet a bit in there so far. The prices are higher on somethings. Like all shirts are $3.75. I am not saying that is bad for a good shirt but I am really picky. Two piece outfits are $7.50, Pants are $4, etc. I have bought a few clothes but mostly I have found things for my house. I found a Home Interior picture the other day just like brand new for $2.
So I am still happy.Jeanna
