we are away from home right now ,in our caravan ,I will have fun when I get home

Great find.

Nice one, Monika!

WOW, great find! The best price I have found is at the DAV (Disabled American Veterans thrift shop). They are a quarter each, when they have them. If you are a veteran or a senior citizen you get an additional 10 percent discount. I love a bargain.

Great deal! It certainly makes it worthwhile to check these places.

What a great deal. I have got to make a habit of checking out these stores.

My latest bargain was from my local Salvation Army Store where I pick up terrific parcels of material. It was a LOYALTY CARD. Whoever thought we could get a loyalty card from the "Salvo's"?? I think this will go into my treasure tin as a keepsake................Ann

our local Salvo store also has loyalty cards , can we see a picture of your find

It always pays to check your local Red Cross or St Vinnies you never know what treasures you will find and it helps them out with the sale.. Congrats what are you going to make with them....

Excellent find, Monika. Well done. I find it hard to go past an Op Shop myself :)

Good on you Monika well done.

That's brilliant Monika, I always check my Op Shop out at Redhead (Mum and I work there as volunteers). I occasionally and Mum every fortnight. As I've got Italian classes now I miss out a bit more. Great find, love Chris
