Just a few photos of my latest op shop finds...although I must admit I was looking for some swimmers for number three son as he has a camp coming up very soon. The past two days have been spent in about 9 different op shops with awful luck and the most horrible weather too! (it has been absolutely freezing in Sydney and the rain just never stopped) the clothes I found were either too big, too small or too expensive. But luckily and in the smallest shop too I found a pair for him, you would not believe how much of a nagger he can be so to have that crossed of my list (and his list) was a huge relief. These little 'extras' above are just my bonus for such tremendous and hard work ;)
- The above thermos was something I actually found Wednesday but had to leave it behind as I didn't have any cash on me, a usual occurrence for me with my tribe. I am starting to think they can smell it as soon as they walk in the door! anyway, I left it behind and it felt terrible. I felt heartbroken that someone else would own it but I went back today remembering where I had left it and for a brief moment held my breath and it was there...waiting for me :)
- The pretty plate was 50 cents and intended for holding cakes. It is now happily holding a banana bread but I doubt the cake will stay there long
- More golden books...but still looking for 'Ukulele and her new doll' one of my favourites when I was a young girl
- These gorgeous vintage dress patterns were $2 but I only had $1 on me and I told the sales assistant I only have a dollar and was going to say...wait while I go get some but before I could he said that will do just as long as it gets used, that is the most important thing :)
- A vintage pillowcase with a gorgeous floral pattern
- I finally bought the peppermint magazine, I thought I would miss out before the new one came along
- AND I won a double pass for filling out a uni survey, although the movie doesn't look that wonderful to me the fact that I will be going out on a date with Andres will make it worth it
