It's fun to spend some time browsing a couple of local thrift stores...wanna come along? I'm breaking this post into two parts....rather than overload you with a lot of photos! A number of platters on the shelves....
The prices were reasonable....and there are a few to pick from....loving the apples on this one....such a fun piece....
This wintery snowman one is adorable....lots of uses for this sweet platter....
I have no thoughts on what this set could be used for....maybe they are better served using separately...what do you think?
Can you say add to cart? This small harness hopefully will work for a bit.....it should be okay for a puppy. It closes with velcro....which I'm not a fan of....but it will be a "beginner" harness....should work and be strong enough to hold a little pup. I find if overused, the velcro tends to lose its hold...last thing we want is the harness giving way & have a pup on the loose!
I think the price was $3-$4 at the most....these retail for $39.99 & up!! It's in new condition - I don't think used....
And the first warm little jacket....also sells for $39.99 & up! The ones I found to compare it to had hoods....I prefer no hood....
A pretty mint green throw....one of many we will need! Everything is freshly laundered & ready to use!
This little video brought me to tears! Before Christmas, Atlantic Canada Dachshund Rescue had a post where you could purchase, on Amazon...various items a dachshund in rescue might enjoy for Christmas! From the list of dogs in their care, I chose Beanie...who is a very special senior girl...battling kidney failure.
I ordered a couple of Beanie's "wants" & had them shipped to her! Her adoptive Mom sent me this video...Beanie enjoying one of the toys I sent! Now....here's where the waterworks started. Notice the red & white blanket Beanie is snuggled on. I recognized it immediately - it was Liesel's! I asked Beanie's Mom where she had gotten the blanket - she confirmed it arrived with Beanie when she adopted her!!!
Oh my heart! The rescue president confirmed Beanie had indeed received Liesel's blanket.....along with a couple of other doxies - the blankets went with them to their new homes....as they enjoyed them so in foster care!
Our precious Liesel...paying it forward!
Moving right along....these crates were just set out as I was browsing around...$9 for the smaller one and $14 for the larger one! Excellent prices....
I don't know why I didn't buy this cute dog dish....having a couple of spares is always a good thing! I should have picked it up....it's the perfect size...ugh.
I'll end this visit here....will share a few more things I saw....it was a perfect time to roam about....the stores weren't overly busy....
We have a busy weekend coming up.....daughter in Nova Scotia is being married to her long time love. A very, small intimate gathering....we'll motor over along with daughter here & her husband....
Thanks so much for spending time with me today!! Have an awesome weekend!!
Til next time....
Those were such good items for the new puppy at great prices! RHill, TX
ReplyDeleteThank you! I thought the prices were good...and in excellent condition. I remember, years ago...when our first puppy arrived - she was so small...I needed to purchase a cat harness!! Hoping this one I picked up with fit!!!
DeleteAlways fun to thrift and you hit the jackpot. It’s heartwarming that Liesel’s blanket brought comfort to a kindred spirit. Did you buy any of the plates you shared with us? Enjoy your daughter’s wedding. Stay safe as you travel. Hugs, Elaine
ReplyDeleteI was so touched to see Liesel's blanket - I knew we made the right choice donating her things! I didn't get any plates - I had purchased a couple my last venture into the thrift stores....so I didn't need any additional ones! The weather is looking decent for travel to NS on the weekend...fingers crossed! Have an awesome weekend, Elaine!
