Last week my hubs and I hit the road for Winfield, Alabama, where his brother lives and where we were going to spend Thanksgiving.
We drove the whole way -- 19 hours from Philly to 'Bammy -- leaving at 9:15 pm Tuesday night.
At about 2:00 pm the following day, we were on the outskirts of Birmingham, when I saw the sign that sets all our heart aflutter: THRIFT.
It was a large-ish store. And here's some of the things I got:
a Roseville vase in the Dahlrose pattern - $2. It's got damage, but it's still worth WAY more than two bucks.
two sets of lacquerware trays -- one set decorated with crawfish, the other with winged bugs. 99 cents.
three sets cups/saucers of Syracuse restaurant china in the Jubilee pattern. $3
and three vintage neckties.
I got some more neat stuff at other places. And I think drove the in-laws nuts with my insistence that our free time be spent in thrift and antique shops.
