Thrifting Day - New Vintage Coming Soon!

Have I mentioned I really love Thrifty Shopper? We found another location, about an hour from home! (Totally worth the drive!!)



This one might be the largest one yet. I have to admit, I walked in and got overwhelmed! I walked around all the outside edges, checked out the shoes, jewelry, and electronics, Had a full basket and decided to check out. I will absolutely be back there, SO much to choose from!

Even one of these nifty Antique Clothes Wringers!


We stopped at a couple thrift stores yesterday. We also went grocery shopping (More baking supplies! Yay!), To PetSmart (Christmas hats & toys for the cats! Hah!), Stopped for Iced Coffees, Checked out Home Depot for blinds, and were pretty much gone all day long! I feel like we're stocking up for winter!

I also feel like I'm doing a lot more thrifting than listing in the shop. I have lots of special vintage items on the way, as soon as I get everything photographed! If you follow me on Twitter, you've probably noticed our nocturnal habits. I'm up all night - but I need sun light for photos! Very soon, My Lovely Readers - New Vintage on the way!

Not tonight though! Tonight is all about hanging out with the guys, Watching the UFC Fights, Drinking too much coffee, and Cozying up to the kittens - My Perfect Saturday Night.



Happy Saturday!!

More Thrifting Adventures!

A while ago, I blogged about our local thrift store closing and opening in a new location down town. The original store is now officially closed, but I've had a chance to check out the new one, so I wanted to report back and let you know what I found out.



For starters, the new place is really big! I also think they have it more organized than the other location. They even have more of a place for a line and extra cash registers so when they have big sales, people don't have to wait in line for an hour. (Awesome!) The inside is Bright, Clean, and not so crammed full with things you get overwhelmed.



With a whole wall just for Shoes and Bags!


Here's some of my Finds from the New Thrifty Shopper -

Two pair of Ferragamo Heels included!! The red pair sold as soon as I listed them. (Yay!) I still have this beautiful black pair of Size 8 Salvatore Ferragamo Oxford Style Heels. What a great find!

Thrift Store Closing..

One of my favorite thrift stores in town, called 'Best kept Secret' is closing! Oh No!

It's okay! They have moved and already opened in another location in town. (Phew!) And for the next week, we have both!

We stopped at our old favorite today after a trip to the post office. It's in a great old building -



I wonder what they will do with the building when it's no longer a thrift store. We found some great things, all for the shop! Here's a little sneak peak!

Some of todays finds.

Great shoes, a couple bags, and some nice vintage costume jewelry! I'm hoping for nice weather tomorrow so I can get good pictures of all of it! Updates coming to the shop soon.

The new thrift store looks great! It's in a huge spot. I must find out more soon!
