Thrift Store Finds 3/8/08 (With Photo Essay)

Today I got to go to one of my favorite thrift stores. They have a sale on Saturdays where anything under $1 is 50% off and anything over $1.00 is 30% off. Today I went because I need school clothes for my oldest two boys. They are growing out of their clothes and desperately needed some new ones.

My total was a little over 12 dollars and I got:

10 books (mostly kids)

1 pad of Handwriting Paper so the kids can work on neater handwriting (new for .15 cents)

3 Videos (School House Rock Science Rock, Spongebob and Power Rangers)

5 pair of School pants

8 School shirts

1 pair of jeans for my youngest son

1 night shirt for my oldest son

1 Power Rangers shirt probably for my youngest son but might possibly fit my middle son

1 black shirt that my oldest son picked out for himself

1 shirt for my youngest son with a crab on it that says "Sometimes crabby, but always cute"

1 bunny wood decoration that has a small basket at the back that I set on the front porch as an Easter decoration.

1 Matchbox Car toy that has a Mummy. It lights up and talks and you play with your cars through it.

I was pleased that the total was only 12 something.

When I was leaving, I ran into my grandparents so I went inside to visit with them for a bit and I saw this nightlight Globe. I talked my Grandma into getting it. It was 30% off of 6.96. I am redoing my kids room in a planet theme as soon as we get some other stuff taken care of here. I already have paint and am trying to cheaply collect more planet stuff. This is not included in my total of 12 something.
