A play on words!! At the Senior Citizen’s thrift shop, I found and purchased a pair of SAS shoes–for $1.00. See the identical shoes on the SAS website–for $157.00. I know the brand; I knew I was blessed to find them in my size. Frankly, I had worn out all my “work” shoes and was seriously in need of shoes for Fall and Winter. Maybe these are “too nice” for yard work?

Same thrift shop, same day, I purchased a Carnival Glass Pitcher identical to the one pictured at the left. I’m confident the Thrift Shop had no idea it was an antique. On-the-other-hand, maybe they were just glad for the $2.00 sale?? I searched eBay and found the pitcher priced from $19.99 to $45.00. Several vendors wanted more for shipping than they were asking for the item. Imagine?! ~~ I promptly donated the pitcher to the CARE Thrift ‘n Gift shop (and it may sell for $20.00 or more).
