  3. My latest find was a kitchen set of valances, curtains, and matching chairpads for a $1.00!! They looked brand new and were the perfect "odd" shade of green I needed. Of course my mother-in-law is the. Real "yard sale queen"--she bought a new 6-month old $40,000 car for about $10,000!! No joke! :)love the giveaway!

  7. I get excited over every purchase or I wouldn't go. I search mostly for vintage sewing and embroidery things.But now it is close to garage sales and sometimes they are cheaper. Thanks for doing this giveaway. Carrie

  9. Karen,
    Oh My goodness how can I pick. I thrift at least once a week, and I have so many great things. So I will just pick from my resent finds. An old spoon rack to hold all my very old spoons. I had been looking for one for some time. It was two dollars.

  10. My favorite (and best to date) thrifting find was a boxful of silver platters, a warming chafer, and a creamer cup for free! There was an antique store moving and giving a whole yard full of stuff away. It was a great find! Oh, I'd love to be entered in the giveaway too - my MJF screen name is Tammy Claxon. Thank you!

  11. Hi Kathy!
    My all time fav thrifting was getting a small antique pin cushion. I still have it and bought it at least 20 years ago. It's a wooden bucket that is engraved. It is so cute and special to me that I only have a couple of things I got that long ago and it is one of them.

    Please add me to the contest!
