    Talking GREAT trip to Salv Army!!

    I'm really going to have to start going in that store more often! It's not very clean, so I usually pass on it, but my aunt and uncle are visiting and they LOVE thrift stores...any and all! So, we went in...

    I got 4 'onesies' for my friend who's expecting...3 were 50 cents each and one was 25 cents!! Nice brands, good condition...

    As I was headed to the register I saw 4 Corelle plates that match our set (ivy around the edge). I figured extra plates are always good so picked 'em up. They were marked 2.50 each...seemed WAY high to me, but they had a red mark on the tag as well...so I took them to the register. THEY WERE 10 CENTS EACH!!!

    I'm SO excited!!! I have 4 more, like new, Corelle plates for my set for only 40 cents!!

    Yeah, definitely need to stop in there more often!

    Those plates were unbelievable finds!! I cannot believe how expensive Corel has gotten - great job!! It's a good thing that your company likes to shop thrift stores - you could be the big winner of great finds this week!! Keep us posted!!

    So when are you going back?
    The hunt is fun but the finds really are the best! Enjoy!
