Frugal with a Flourish: Thrifty Finds!

[ 9:36 PM | Posted in Frugal Find | | ]

Ahhh... found some deals out yard sale hopping. Wanna see?? I was hoping you would!

First, I got these bamboo branches - new and still in the package - for $1! Love it! Now I have to find a fun cool vase to put them in!

Next, I found this adorable Baby Vampire costume. No - there are no babies in my future. But I do have an adorable "adopted" nephew that this is going to look smashing on for Halloween! Only $3 - love it!

Finally - the cream of the crop. I got this beautiful quilt with two matching shams for - wait for it - $10!!! It is a king size too! However the lady said she used it on a queen that was "high" so I am hoping it will work well in the guest room! But for $10 why not!

What about you? Score any finds this weekend? Tell me about them and then head on over to Rhoda's @ Southern Hospitality and join in the Thrifty Treasures Party!
