Look what I scored at the thrift store!

Well, you can't look because my camera broke yesterday. The King thinks he can fix it. What's up with everything breaking around here?

Anyway, I'll describe it. Last week I got 11 yards of fabric at 50 cents each! 4 were a purple plaid and 3 yards were a blue plaid. Think grunge nineties. Then I got a yard each of, blue, pink, red, and green thin wale corduroy. I don't know what I'll use it for but at 50 cents a yard I'll think of something.

Then this week I scored a bag full of embroidery thread. A large bag full for just $3.00. Which is great cause Princess is really into embroidery right now.

I got both at the Goodwill store in the town that I work in. I shop about once a week there. I'm currently looking for baskets to replace plastic storage containers. I'm a little tired of the Dorm Room Chic look we've had around here for the last seven years. It's the best place in my limited area to shop second hand at.

Do you shop second hand? What's the best place in your town?
