Since I've been sick I haven't really done a proper thrifting trip. I mean, on days I felt better I would go to one, maybe two of the stores closest to my house but today I was feeling good, the weather was nice and I even bothered to eat a proper breakfast. So I made the trip to all my favorite thrift stores (even the ones in Norfolk!). Few but large images.

Alright, so people post pictures of clothing they buy at thrift stores then link to ebay or retail where it's going for a lot more, so I hope this is alright. I am not reselling here, I probably will eventually because I am a college student, I just want to brag about my sweet score!
At a Salvation Army saw this beauty for $75, and knowing the little bit I do about instruments I thought hey, maybe this is worth more. So I did some quick iphone research, and called my gear-nerd boyfriend. We determined that it could potentially be worth a lot more, and at worst I'd break even or a friend would get an awesome Christmas present. So I abandoned my cheap nature at the door and bought this:

(again, i hope this is allowed!)
the fall is a dangerous season for me; despite how many coats I have, I always gravitate towards those racks time and time again. but it is also my favorite time to thrift..used holiday ware, musty scarves, beautiful leaves falling at the flea market. goofy girl wearing pumpkin headband.
