A Thrifting Invitation

Hello, friends!

On Saturday morning, a few of us blogging girls in the middle Tennessee area are going on a thrifting expedition (on half-price day, no less!). If anyone out there is local and would like to meet up with us for a few hours of fun (and probably lots of blog talk!), send me an email to let me know. We’d love for you to join us!

Can you believe this will be my first-ever time thrifting in a group? Is my giddiness spilling through the screen?!

So, I am curious…

What is your proudest thrift store/yard sale/side of the road acquisition? Let me know, and I might just feature some of your greatest finds!

Happy Hump Day!

    Oh my gosh! Been following your blog for a few weeks and had no idea that you are in Mid TN! Me too! Always a treat to find fellow TN bloggers 🙂

    I’ve been following for a WHILE and didn’t realize you were in TN! I’m near Memphis. Wish I was headed your way this weekend. Sounds like fun!

    Awwwww, I guess California isn’t quite close enough to meet up, but that sounds like a little slice of heaven!

    I picked up a little antique telephone table/desk thing last week that I’m pretty excited about….

    Have fun!!

    My first kitchen aid mixer came from a yard sale! I got it for $25. Now $25 might seem like a high amount for spending on one item at a yard sale, but for a kitchen aid mixer? It was a steal! It worked great too, I ended up giving it away when my sister gave me her larger one (that she replaced with a larger one LOL) and my friend now uses the mixer I had bought at a yard sale, and it was 20 years old when I bought it at the yard sale!

    Me too wishing I was in Tennessee!

    My Love and I went to a garage sale last Sunday and he found a Franklin Mint Commerative Presidential Coin Set in Silver for $5. He took it to a coin shop today and sold it for $200. Figures he found it before I did!

    That sounds like so much fun! I wish I lived in Tennessee!

    We have a garage sale group that goes nearly every week. Last summer, I found all kinds of treasures but the winner hands down was the complete box set Pride and Prejudice movie in the original wrapper for $1. That had to cost someone at least $50 originally. Now I can watch the yummy Mr Darcy (Colin Firth) anytime I want 🙂
