Deliver me from Temptation.....

Friday I was out running errands

and decided on the way back home

to make a quick stop at our nearby DAV...

I have been trying to limit myself...

but some days I drive by

and see things they have out front and just can't resist!

That is where my self restraint tries to kick in

ME -Stop?

Conscience- "No, you don't need to"

ME-"Right"

ME-"But just to see what is outside, don't have to get out of the car?"

Conscience-"No, supposed to be saving money, even if you only spend $1!"

ME -"Right"

ME "Two more seconds and you won't be able to turn!"

Tires squeal

and I make a last minute dash into the parking lot!

 Like the Deathstar of Planet Thrift pulled my van into the lot...

So pathetic...

The Thrift Force was with me Friday!

(sorry for the corn)

Here is what I found...

Entire roll of this groovy 70's kitschy

wallpaper

.58 cents

I'm pretty sure we may have had this growing up!

Plan to use it for Ephemera packs

and to share....

Whitmans Candy Tin

.48 cents

and

 vintage hand sewn pillow cover

.98 cents

I have been finding all kinds of Whitmans tins lately

and they have been perfect for storing

craft items like stamps and sewing supplies.

I found this vintage bird mobile in the records section?!

.98 cents

Unusual and great graphics...

Children's book with cute

Dick and Jane like pictures throughout

I plan to scan them to use...

.68 cents

I thought this was a book at first...

When you open it 

turns into this cute little doll set to play with

There are instructions on how to make little outfits for the

two dolls

You can store things in the cabinet on the right

and the counter top on the left pulls out and you can store in it

and then push back in when you close!

So adorable I couldn't resist...

$1.48

The dolls had never been taken out of the packaging...

I have this in mind as a Christmas gift!

Not bad for about $5.00 for everything?!
