More Good Thrifting!

This week was wonderful thrifting.  I went out on Friday and on Saturday.  Friday I was alone.  I felt a little ill  so I didn’t plan on staying out long.  Yard sales are a great tonic and after going to a couple, I felt fine.  Saturday I was much better.  Ron and Freedom came with me.  We left  home very early in the morning to shop a sale being held by one of our flea market dealers.  I usually find lots of “have to have” things at his sales, so I was a little disappointed when I didn’t find anything.  After his sale, we headed out towards my daughter’s house stopping at sales on the way.  Last week, we inadvertently brought home a bag with my Grandson’s soccer jersey in it and needed to drop it off.  I still hadn’t found a thing by the time we got to her house.  We decided to head for an area where we are usually successful.  On the way, we saw a sign for a yard sale and followed it.  It ended up being a cul-de-sac sale.  At the first sale I bought some books and this roll top desk.
I also found this silver pitcher.
and this small post office box.
At the second sale, I got this wonderful pink bottle and the colorful mirror.
At the last sale I bought a stack of Civil War magazines and a large book on the Civil War for my Grandson.  I don’t believe there is one thing about that war he doesn’t know.  He’s always been facinated with history.  I think now he’s learning all he can about the two world wars.
I also bought this old tin.  The woman said her grandmother kept her flour in it. 
I made one other purchase on Saturday.  I’ve never seen one liter glass coke bottles. Here’s a six pack of them.
Can’t wait to see what goodies you found.  What did I ever do for entertainment before yard sales? 
I am linking up to the parties at Tales From Bloggeritaville and Coastal Charm.  Hope you’ll drop by and say hi.
