As I was getting ready to dash out the door this afternoon, I realized I had scored three times with the number '20'. I am a thrift store shopper and last month Lisa and I went on the hunt. For you locals, these were found at the Bremerton Goodwill. It's more like a treasure hunt then just shopping. Always looking for that great piece! Well Lis scored not once for me, but twice! Check out this 1980's, three buckle biker/rocker watch she found. There is this cool dragon on the watch face, then........

you pop open the little case and the watch appears.....


twist, snap and I have the watch face!

and the three buckles that strap it on....I love this - $20
Then she finds this - a cashmere jacket in near perfect condition made in Italy - $20
This is not a very good picture, but you get the idea.

And then on Sunday, we hit a local thrift shop. We had a blast trying on all kinds of clothes - I didn't find anything I couldn't live without, but I always check out the men's shoes - sometimes I find way cooler shoes or boots then women's and guess what! I found a pair of shoes I couldn't live without. These amazing saddle shoes fit perfectly, and are in remarkable condition - $20

I have a rule when I do this kind of shopping. It has to be something I can't live without and to find three things in two months is really exceptional. I have to say, when I took the watch in to have a new battery put in, the people who own the jewelry store were just ga ga over it and couldn't believe I got it for only, yes, the magic number, $20. Even my 83 year old mother loves the watch and she was ga ga over the shoes too! Happy Wednesday everyone!
