Thrift Store(ies) 12/5

Wednesday was Family Day at our local Salvation Army, and needless to say, we were there.  So was 75% of the people in our area.  In spite of this, we still made some good finds.  Not too many "wow factors", but some good old solid stuff:
  • Descente Triathlon jersey
  • The Mountain T Shirt "Gift Of The Eagle Feather"
  • Depeche Mode T Shirt
  • Fox Racing T Shirt
  • Tapout T Shirt
I am starting to look into t shirts more lately.  Mainly because they are always in abundance at all of our thrift stores, and they are cheap ( especially when 1/2 price!).  And people love them.

 Autumn scored 2 really nice Wilton cake pans, Smurf and Smurfette.  They are new and have both the insert and the decorating guide.  I have these listed already for $29.99 OBO each, and already have had an offer on Smurfette (which I politely declined and made a counteroffer). 

 
Autumn also found a great pair of MBT Sport 03 sneakers.  We always buy MBTs.  They sell well, and we usually find them in very good condition.  Autumn's luck continued when she found a North Face Khumbu fleece jacket.  It was full price, but North Face sells, so no problem!  
After the Salvation Army, we went to a Goodwill down the road, but had zero luck.  Things should be picking up after Christmas when people start donating their unwanted presents.  
On the selling side, a few weeks ago, I found a  Salvatore Ferragamo tie at our Goodwill for $1.00.  It sold yesterday for $44.99.


Until next time, happy thrifting, and good luck selling!
