Girl, you are going to be a PERFECT fit on this board, shure enuff! 

We have members here who run thrifts and used to run thrifts, and Jay2therescue sells great stuff at flea markets. Yowza, congrats on your Navajo jug find. Nice score!  Ahhhh, purses: many vintage purse lovers here, like Diane and Oceangurl.  A lot of us have Pyrexia, and Alexandra is our fashion shopper par excellence. And these are just a few of the things we discuss/thrift. The list is endless! You will have lots of fun here!
