Friday Finds!



I've found I enjoy seeing other people's finds from thrift stores/couponing/garage sales so I thought I might try to share deals I find from various locations!

This week I went to the Goodwill 50% sale and scored these great deals!





This pretty little mermaid is part of the Munro Syrens of the Sea Collection, her name is Jadyn and she is retired (can't even find her on ebay)! I have a few of these mermaids already and also collect the Faerie Glen line....so I knew what she was worth without the aide of her original price tag of $26.99!

Original Retail Price - $26.99
Goodwill nonsale price - $5.00
Goodwill Half off Sale Price - $2.50

Savings of $24.49....prolly more since she's retired!



Love Love Love me some snowglobes!

Last trip to SeaWorld I saw these beauties! The picture doesn't really do it justice as the sand and shells of the base have a fine irredesent glitter all over! Very pretty but I didn't see paying the $19.99 and maybe not making it saftley home with it. Lucky lil me found same snowglobe, price tag still attached on half price day!

Original Retail Price - $19.99

Goodwill nonsale price - $5.00
Goodwill Half off Sale Price - $2.50

Savings of $17.49


Hubby is a BIG fan of Monty Python so when I found this metal sign I knew I had to get it!

Original Retail Price - Retails for anything over $9.99
Goodwill nonsale price - $3.00
Goodwill Half off Sale Price - $1.50

Savings of $8.49





You can use Goodwill, especially on half off days, for a good resource for resale on Ebay...you just need to know your prices!

All these goodies are staying with me, but you can easily see how I could turn a nice profit on these items if I wanted to resale them.

Awesome! My mom and I went a few weeks ago here and I found 3 suits (jacket & pants) for CJ. They were real nice. I paid $11.99 each suit. I need to go see if I can find some cheap clothes for me. Since I hope I am still going to be losing more weight I don't want to pay a lot for clothes.
Thanks for sharing. I don't know that ours has those major sales like you hit.
