You may want to ask your programmer to throw in an "hr" tag in to separate the ads.  The "short description" column runs togeather on many of the ads.

This is what it does...

Sample ad 1
I'm looking for an unused one way ticket to Utopia.

Sample ad 2
I'm looking for some K-Tel 8-Tracks

Sample ad 3
I'm looking for Atari 2600 game cartridges

Can I have the one-way, unused ticket to Utopia, please?  Make sure it isn't off-season or standby. Smiley Smiley

Its not standby, but it is a supersaver, so you will have to make your reservation by singing telegram on a blue moon when Mars and Venus are aligned.

Big Daddy, I totally agree with your last comment.  I don't really want or need anything when I thrift.  I find what is presented and create around it, or wait for the "right" item.    Or do without it. Or buy it first-hand---but if I resort to that, I must really really need it or really really want it  Wink

I will say to fellow thrifters that the more I thrift, the less tolerance I have for buying stuff at outrageous prices that isn't even worth one-twentieth of what is being charged. I've noticed that a lot about myself lately. Maybe it's old age creeping in Wink

IS there an "off" season in Utopia?   I would think that by it's very nature that would not be so - it would always be "on" season there!  Wink

Ahhh, but how do we know unless we've experienced it, grasshopper Smiley?

Chrismiss, is that Oritagi you're looking for a particular pattern or stamp? 'cause I look at a billion mugs/cups a week (or so it seems Smiley) and I could keep my eye open for you.

Tiamatgreen, that is a lovely pic. You are very beautiful.  You and your honey make a lovely couple.

I love the setting!  Were you visited by ghosts while you were there?


Happy Halloween,

Congrats on your wedding.  What a great looking couple you two are.

SeSo, I appreciate the offer to be on the lookout.  I just buy the mugs if I find them while thrifting.  I've got several right now and will be putting some in storage when we get to Tampa that I found this season while traveling.  I buy any that I find even if I don't "need" them right away.  We go through spells where it seems we'll break several mugs and then none for a long time.
