Thread: Goodwill, Thrift Stores, Estate Sales and Garage Sales Finds

It is easy to have guilt feelings when you walk away with the item at a ridiculously low price but I assure you that changes to glee fifty feet away from that site.

I haunt my local Goodwill every Wednesday (senior discount day) and have over the past few years come away with the four shown here.
An Evelyn & Crabtree Scuttle cost me 75 cents (50% off the color of the day)

Unknown scuttle, marked with an I on the bottom cost me $1.99

Animal shaped bowl with a sandy grit finish. Best lathering bowl yet cost me $2.99

Not shaving related but a bit of nostalgia. An egg cup with the pattern of my Mothers fancy dishes brought out only on holidays cost me $1.99

You may not realize it but that last item is very familiar to me because it is really "The Holy Grail". I saw it a couple thousand years ago when Jesus and I...well you don't wanna know.You are now the richest guy in the world. Folks will pay billions for it.

What are you going to do with it?
