Today was Value Village’s ½ price clothing day.
This is what I came home with:
The sad truth is, I was there for over three hours.
So, I am writing a quick post now about the things I found at Value Village last Thursday when I used up my 30% off card.
You might recall that, on Friday, I showed you our visit to the store and the items I chose not to buy.
I did in fact buy a mishmash of stuff, including these sweet measuring pitchers, above. I am excited to use these next time I bake. Probably tomorrow.
I seem to have been focused on pictures that day for some reason. Among the frames that I selected (including a large, empty frame) was this little picture by Edvard Munch.
I also picked out this little image of Van Gogh’s The Starry Night. It's really the framing that attracted me to it.
I will enjoy serving food on this small tray, which features an image by Currier and Ives.
I also bought this little apron, modelled by my daughter here.
I bought some outdoor folding chairs that my husband called, and I quote, “hideous.” Note: I have added a photo of the chairs HERE.
Perhaps I will show you soon and you can see if you agree. I won’t be offended. After all, I bought them anyway! I’m pretty stubborn that way.
Linking up with these wonderful blogs: Hey What's For Dinner Mom? and Me and my shadow and Cap Creations and Coastal Charm and Beez Rental Designs and Knick of Time and Her Library Adventures
Nice new Stuff! The last Picture is sooo cute :)
ReplyDeleteLovely Greetings!
Thanks! Have a great day!
DeleteLove all your finds {as per usual}-- particularly the Munch {not one of his better known works, but so sweet & lovely which is not generally something one thinks of when one thinks of Munch lol}
ReplyDeleteThat's so true, Tabetha! :)
DeleteOh great... I think I will miss it ;(
ReplyDeleteI'm feeling sick today - great timing I know!
Besides, you already grabbed all the good stuff ;D
xoxo
They refresh the racks a few times during the day! I can't get to it all. ;) Seriously though, sorry you are feeling ill, especially when it is finally warm around here. Feel better soon!
DeleteThese are some good finds. I like all of your pictures!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sherry!
DeleteGreat finds! Love the Currier and Ives tray and the apron modeled by your cutie of a daughter. :-) Hope you have a wonderful night!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sharla!
DeleteI seriously have a secret love affair with Value Village. For Reals. He beckons to me through out the day.. what is my discount color... what coupons could you use today? Cute finds.
ReplyDeleteYou are so funny! I think you might be worse off even than me. ;) But, my passion for it IS growing! :)
DeleteI love those measuring cups. It's amazing what you can find with just a little time to browse.
ReplyDeleteSo true! I think if you go regularly, too, then you can get the good finds.
DeleteYour kiddo looks a-dorable! Sweet finds!!! Love the paintings and the measuring cups! Please post the chairs - I picked up a folding chair from a garage sale because it reminded me of my uncle - it's tacky but I love it! :)
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing wrong with spending 3 hours thrifting, lol... I do it all of the time.
Okay, I will take a picture of the chairs after I get my husband to unfold them. ;) They are stuck! He will feel good about that since he didn't want to buy them. Okay, I don't feel so bad about the thrifting. Thanks!
Delete1/2 price clothing day is great! I was able to pick up some gym short on half price day too last week. Love it! Thanks for sharing at cap creations this weeks link party is now live.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had more restraint, like you! I bought four pairs of jeans, tops, a hoodie, three purses. Thanks for hosting the party once again!
DeleteI love coming back with huge bags stuffed with goodies. The best bit is getting home and looking through them all!
ReplyDeleteThat's so true. By the time I get home, I can't even remember all I got. At the store, I'm too excited, whipping things into the cart! :)
DeleteOkay so this is totally bizarre. Here I am, on the other side of the world and I have quite a few of the same things as you, and I'm vegan as well and I'm addicted to vintage/thrift/op shopping. AND I had those exact same little measuring jugs but I gave them to the op shop (second hand/thrift store) because I got ruthless with getting rid of stuff. I had three of the measuring jugs. And looking at your stuff is like looking at my own stuff. I'm halfway doing crazy-reading through your blog and wondering what other stuff you have, that I have! I had some blog entries planned for my op shop finds but ah, I bought so much that it's a pain to take everything out to photograph.
ReplyDeleteThat is funny! I admire your strength in giving up lots of stuff. I'm not there yet! ;) I would love to see some of the stuff you have found and kept (and whether I own copies as well). Maybe WE look alike too? ;)
