Accidental Thrifting

I swear I wasn’t setting out for this, but when a trip to Goodwill yields no jars, and the overwhelming fear that Bill’s doomsday predictions of me not being able to find any more is coming true, I must buy other things to compensate!
Oops
And isn’t this a strange base for a globe? Strange but AWESOME!

    Amber, I picked up a small globe (around 8″ tall?) at the Target dollar spot the other day. $2.00!
    You can see a picture of it on my blog next to my passport.
    Just thought it may be one you could add to your collection.
    🙂

    I LOVE really cool, surprise thrift store finds. I haven’t been to my local one in several weeks, so I think a trip might be in order soon. Just wandered into your blog, and really enjoying it!
