    Default More from the SA thrift store

    Today I volunteered at the thrift store for a couple of hours. This was the last day of their 50% off sale. I got a pair of boots for my daughter, a diego back pack for my son, and this:



    All three for $1.50. The globe was new, but not in a box, it still had the flex cuffs attached to the bottom that keeps it in the box. The globe can be purchased now at sears for $39.99 and on amazon I just checked and it says $89.99. So I think I got a great deal, and its a great learning thing for small children.
