What I'm Looking For: September 2013

Here is a new month and a new list.  The last few trips to Goodwills in our area haven't been big hauls.  We have been walking out with just 1 or 2 finds.  It all balances out when I see how many items I've found for our children and our home this year.  

The best find we found in August was a Super Nintendo system for $9.99.  My son was thrilled with that of course!
Here is my list for September and Happy Thrifting to you all!

1. Wonderful condition sneakers for my boys
2. Anything I think might do well on ebay, if I get listing on there again.  
3. A suede jacket for myself
4. A jacket/coat for my eldest son (size 12/14)
5. Kids books
6. Pokemon plush toys for the boys

Thrift Hunt or What I'm Looking For for the month of August 2013

1. Boys size 12/14 clothing for my eldest sons anticipated growth spurt
2. Pokemon stuff
3. Books for everyone, hoping to fill in the Narnia books I'm missing
4. Halloween costume pieces 
5. Anything to hold onto for Xmas, planning ahead this year, extra ahead!
6. Coats for all the boys
7. Dressers for me and my daughter
8. A nice toybox (plastic) for my youngest
9. Any outside play structures that I can use on the deck or backyard

Been having a sweet time at the thrift so far this summer.  I've found shorts for summer for me and the kids, a modest trendy swimsuit for myself, and loads of kids books.

1. More books, especially kids books
2. Lightweight long sleeved tops
3. Jewelry
4. Anything Caillou for my toddler
5. Thomas the Tank Engine items
6. Great condition sneakers for my sons
7. Anything from the defunct theme park Magic World- mugs, postcard, ect.
8. Swimsuit for Lydia

What I'm Looking For- June

I've been lucky to check out another Goodwill with my family last week in Athens TN.  We bought a mirror (not sure what I'll be doing with it!) and manga books.  Tonight in Dayton, TN, I bought some stuffed toys for my sons (sonic the hedgehog and an angry bird) and got light washed distressed jeans for myself and sandals from Italy.  Not bad for $10.

Now for what I'm keeping my eyes open for:

1. Garbage Pail kids
2. Manga books
3. Thomas the tank trains
4. Step2 or Little Tykes outdoor play stuff

Since there is nothing clothing related I'm looking for, I'll just leave my list at this. :)

What I'm Looking For- May 2013

With my husbands new work hours, I'm not getting out to thrift or yard sale that often- (we are a 1 car household).  But that's alright since we are overflowing with things in our home.  My donations have tapered off and I'm saying to myself- "Ok, I'm good on shorts, don't need anymore Nintendo toys, enough with baby clothing".  I shopped on ebay a few times this week for fun and have to say it's a pleasure to search for good deals and have them shipped pretty fast.

So without further ado, my May list!

1. Sunglasses- I broke mine! Oops!
2. Boys swim trunks (size 10, size 7/8)
3. Garbage Pail kids- for me!
4. Check out the jewelry counters!
5. T-shirts/tops for myself
6. Flats or sandels
7. T-shirts for my daughter
8. An umbrella or 2- never have one when I need one!
9. Baby board books
10. An outdoor toy for the spring/summer
