Maddie actually had a much better thrifting day than me -- there was Pokemon everywhere we went! She got cards, action figures, old Pokemon guide books and even a Pokemon DS game (for $2.50, which is such a steal!) In addition to all that, she found the last two Judy Blume books in the series she has been reading. And yes, she pays for all the things she gets with her own money. We do give her a $2 a week allowance since she is very good about helping around the house. Sine she has very limited funds, she is a fierce haggler -- often asking for a 2 for 1 deal or some such thing. I love it!
I found this cute Pyrex cream and sugar -- with the lid which is awfully rare to find -- for a whopping 50ยข. The books and Martha Stewart special holiday issue were a late in the day find. I always liked Susan Branch's illustrated cookbooks, so I couldn't pass up the lot at $2.50.
I suppose I need to start selling some of my Pyrex at some point, but I don't feel like I've maxed out my collection quite yet. I may start listing a few things though, as my cupboards are filling up and there are some sets that I use all the time (love my yellow princess bowl set!) and some that sit in the cabinets.
Do you resell things you find thrifting? If so, is eBay still the way to go? I'm very curious to hear some opinions.
I still use Ebay and Craigslist which is free. They both are still great to use. I love your Pyrex too. I do the same collect and then sell some too. Guess we have to make our money to buy more...right!!
