I usually don't go thrifting on the weekend because stock is low and it's crowded. Today was the exception. I was able to hit some sales with 50% off many of the items I purchased.My main goal was to find an umbrella stroller and some sheets to make a quilt for my son's bed. I didn't find either, but did find a white basket weave blanket(like new) for the warmer weather. He wants a blue striped quilt, so I'm still looking for striped sheets. I like the inexpensive vintage ones, so I haven't looked at new ones.
I bought ahead for my daughter, finding some cute shorts and night clothes, and a vintage floral sheet for her quilt which I plan to make soon. She may fit in some of these at the end of the summer, and others later.There are two pairs of shorts for my son pictured, under a dollar with the sale, so I got them. He hasn't grown into the larger sized shorts that I've got squirreled away, so we needed a few smaller sizes to fill the gap until he has another growth spurt.
I didn't spend more than $2.99 on any one item, a good thrifting day. :).

I went to the little church thrift store on Saturday as well. I picked up some peg mats (about six or so for $.50 total), three books (they apologized for having to charge me $0.25 for the hardcover elementary history book I picked up) and a dress for me. Whooping total of $3.10. ;-) I love this little store.
That's my kind of thrift! :)
