Community yard sales at their best / Thrift haul

Today's thrift haul is from several yard sales that my friend Kate and I went to at a community sale near her home. Things started off slow and I didn't have much hope and then they took off and didn't stop. I hope you enjoy my finds. Hugs, Joanne

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Mine too. Hugs.

[@maggiepatrick892]

Hi Joanne - your pewter frog is playing a bassoon. Love all the Corning ware! You did GOOD!

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

That is what a lot of folks are saying about the instrument too. Thanks. Hugs.

[@itzasunnyday4me]

My favorite piece is, of course, the sleigh! What a grand piece. You had good luck that day!

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

It was a good day for yard sales. Hugs.

[@janinedorrell2152]

I like the tartan thermos perfect as we’re going into winter here. Glad to see Louis looking more sprightly too. 😀 🇦🇺

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

That is right. I always forget we are opposites in our weather. Hugs.

[@SassySue67]

Love the pewter frog playing the saxophone. Great yard sales in your area. Love your irises in the pitcher on your counter.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Most folks are saying a bassoon. The irises are from my front garden. Hugs.

[@SassySue67]

@@batthriftcrazy1959 I just googled bassoon, and I think that’s it, not a saxophone. 🤣.

[@lindastorm7264]

Your make up looks really nice with that blue top, Joanne. The baby sleigh is great!! WHOA!!! I would never sell that! I would use it strictly for display....if you close your booths, set it on your porch.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Oh, thank you so much, Linda. I have so much Christmas that I am happy to have that sleigh go to a wonderful new home where it will be appreciated. Hugs.

[@thelmaoultram24]

My favourite is the sleigh the rabbit and frogs are close runners up.I hope you show us the sleigh when you have it on display(time is flying so we won't need to wait long)T

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

You are right, the way time goes, it won't be long. Hugs.

[@karijernigan8116]

Wow, Joanne you really scored. That sleigh is gorgeous and definitely my favorite. Hugs to you and the critters. ❤❤❤❤

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

I was so lucky when it came to that sleigh. I can't believe no one else grabbed it. Hugs from my crew.

[@cyndaarce6986]

My favorite is all the frogs. I have several myself.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

You would have loved the woman's collection. She had just about everything 'frog'. Hugs.

[@lisebedard7247]

Gorgeous….I have always wanted one…

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

It is even better in person. I was very lucky. Hugs.

[@cjbailey584]

The sleigh! Hands down

[@darleenstill7011]

That sleigh is the winner for sure! And only $2 makes it even better!

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

That was an unbelievable pickup. I was very lucky with that. Hugs.

[@marybeute2838]

All i can say is WOW you hit the motherload of garage sales! And the prices when you said $2 firvthe sleigh i had to take my jaw off the floor!

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Thanks, Mary. I couldn't believe the price of that sleigh either and that someone else hadn't grabbed it before me. WOW! Hugs.

[@elizabethdoherty4016]

Love the sleigh

[@margaretbedwell3211]

The sleigh would have to be my favorite also. That should really be a great return on your investment....which is always great. That was a wonderful haul. Thanks for sharing. Have a Blessed day.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

I just couldn't believe that sleigh. It was just pure dumb luck. Wishing you a wonderful weekend. Hugs.

[@user-mk9us3ny2q]

Definitely the Sleigh is my favorite. And the price was a real steal.. Lucky you..the corningware is highly collectable. You got lots of great finds. Love the frogs 🐸 I have a frog flower garden. I also liked the wooden carved salad fork, etc. A lot of work went into carving them. Hugs Deana ❤❤❤❤

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

I agree that a lot of work went into the salad set. I think it is just beautiful. Hugs.

[@arlenekorth2253]

Yes, Spice of Life pattern is very collectible. Fantastic haul!!!

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Thanks for letting me know. Hugs.

[@CarolinaPrincess-STP]

you can't beat good ol' blue corn flower casserole dishes! Great pick up!

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

They don't seem to be selling. Yet anyway. Hugs.

[@cynthiaamitrano8915]

I have a clock like that white one which I made. Mine is ivory antiqued and battery operated. I made it 50 years ago. Still works. Kind of pretty. The instrument the pewter frog is playing is a bassoon.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

That would be about how old this one is. Hugs.

[@DanaStory-wm1ls]

Yes the spice of life is my favorite because it has the mushrooms on it...That sleigh is absolutely amazing!!! I liked everything but the sleigh is my favorite

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Good to know, thanks. Hugs.

[@beckycourtemanche1088]

You definitely got the best deal of the year so far on the sleigh! Love it. Frogs are adorable. Have a great weekend & stay safe out there!

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

That was pure, dumb luck. Hugs.

[@cheryllatimer164]

The sleigh is gorgeous, Joanne! I loved the flower frog & frog figurines also & the chick's & frog S & P shakers. I have alot of the corningware cornflower blue pattern. I had a 4 quart deep one that came with a matching hot plate and you could use it like an electric fry pan. My daughter broke the pan part I did save the lid and hotplate hopefully I will find a replacement thrifting someday.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

I bet you will find that piece when you least expect it. Fingers crossed for you. Hugs.

[@avettetipton6046]

The instrument is a bassoon

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Thanks so much! Hugs.

[@lynnehampton1777]

Hi Joanne. I love the sleigh. It is my favorite. What a great find and price. It is beautiful. The Josef original frog is so sweet. Like the thermoses too. Corning ware was a great find too. Thanks so much for sharing. Take care. God Bless You and your fur babies.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

What a deal on the sleigh. Can you believe no one picked it up before me? I guess it was meant for me to get. YEAH! Hugs.

[@kathybeck5957]

What GREAT finds!! That sleigh is fantastic! Love and Hugs!!!

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

I saw that sleigh across the driveway and wasn't even going to go over and look at it because I figured it was priced more than I wanted to pay. I almost fell over when I saw the $2 price tag. Hugs and love.

[@janetwentz3259]

Wow, you got GREAT items!! The sleigh is wonderful. Good for you. 🤗

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Thank you! 🤗 It was a great day for yard sales. Hugs.

[@georgannenelson105]

The sleigh is great ,but I love the frogs and the Cornig corn flower because I collect both. I think the cup thing says MEX on the bottom for Mexico.😍

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

I think you are right about the cup. Hugs.

[@user-ik8rw1yv5q]

That slate looks good with quilts in it ❤

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Yes, it would. Hugs.

[@francesahrens1578]

That sleigh…what a DEAL ❤️ !

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

I was very lucky with that sleigh. Hugs.

[@elizabethcochrane9015]

How much was the corningware. Love them. Yes and the sleigh. Keep for yourself.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

I don't really know because I was given one price for the whole lot of things that I purchased. I have too much Christmas as it is now. The sleigh will be going into the booth at Christmas. Hugs.

[@jerriettaarcher7665]

Hi Joanne 👋 that sleigh is worth around 200 I can't believe you got it for 2.00 it's my favorite item.❤❤

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

WOW! I do love that sleigh. I got really lucky with that. Hugs.

[@barbara-pigeonbray4579]

Beautiful treasure !

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Thank you. Hugs.

[@debbieriddle9429]

That sleigh is Incredible!!! Wow. $2??? That's an Amazing find. Those carved wooden Salad Serving pieces are Beautiful. You got some wonderful pieces dear lady. You look beautiful by the way. That blue is so pretty on you. God Bless you.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Thank you so much, Debbie. I do love the sleigh and agree that the serving pieces are beautiful. Hugs.

[@neenamorgan6958]

Great haul, the sleigh is beautiful and my favorite. I have 3 of the fkower frogs which I got at yard sales.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

You are so lucky. I never find them at yard sales except for this last yard sale. Hugs.

[@pgreg9878]

Oh those cute little frogs!

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

That woman really liked her frogs. Hugs.

[@kellydowney2100]

Hi Louis 😻 favorite clock

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Hugs from my crew.

[@joycejohnson535]

I screamed when I saw the sleigh price. What an awesome haul. Sleigh is my favorite, but I love the thermoses, change purse and corning wear. I used to collect frogs as a kid. My grandmother got me and my siblings collecting things. I have a ton of dolls from her. I've been selling some of them. They just sit in the closet taking up space.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

When I was a kid, I collected the small hard stuffed animals that you could buy at Howard Johnson's. I don't know what ever happened to them. Hugs.

[@heidilewis3093]

I have that same wedding clock. It is dated the day we married 12/17/73. It does not work anymore and I think it needs a new insert but not sure here to get one. Cannot wait to see how you style the sleigh next Christmas!

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

I think you can get the clock works at placed like Micaels. I'll bet Hobby Lobby has them too. Hugs.

[@kathystewart8509]

I like all of the haul

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Thanks, Kathy. Hugs.

[@patriciaenriquez9062]

I believe the frog is playing an oboe.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Most folks were saying a bassoon. Hugs.

[@barbarahopf5821]

I love to see you rearranging your booths.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

I really should show you an update of the Gresham booth, that is the one with the most change. Hugs.

[@delmorrow896]

The sleigh is an amazing piece! And the price you paid knocked my hat in the creek! WOW! The pewter frog is playing an oboe. My favorite is the sleigh - it’s wonderful! Hugs!

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Thanks for the name of that instrument. I knew someone would know. Hugs.

[@judithsharrar8706]

Maybe the frog has a flute. And the frogs were cute.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

It could be. I know nothing about musical instruments. I tried playing guitar when I was young, but I was terrible at it. Hugs.

[@sharonmakowsky172]

Hi, Joanne! Wow! What a great find! The sleigh is great! That would look so good in your booth during the holidays. The salad set is real cool too. Love the salt and pepper sets you found too. Great job! Hope all is well! Hugs to you and the fur babies!👍🦋🥰💜🌷 I love my Corning Ware. I have three pieces of the cornflower blue. Also Corning Ware dinnerware in three patterns. It lasts a long time. And you can get replacement lids on line. I broke one of mine but I never replaced it. I had extra lids to use.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

I was very lucky with my yard sale finds for sure. So glad you enjoyed my finds. Hugs from my crew.

[@katnuccio85]

I think the instrument is a bassoon

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Thanks, someone else said that too. Hugs.

[@karen.asecondchance]

The piece that someone had written France is actually Tonala from Mexico.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

That is great. I love picking up those pieces. Thanks for clarifying. Hugs.

[@melapost9207]

I think that might be an oboe.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Yes, that is what someone else said too. Thanks! Hugs.

[@pataustin1977]

I loved the sleigh. That was a steal!

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

I got very, very lucky with that. Hugs.

[@pgreg9878]

The sleigh is great and I can’t believe what you paid for it. You did good !

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Me either. I really got lucky with that piece. Hugs.

[@SISSYKAY]

That sleigh was a great buy at only $2. Did you get a good deal on the cornflower corning ware? Nice haul! The frogs are cute!

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

I would like to think I got a good deal on the Corning Ware. It was a bulk price for everything, $45. Hugs.

[@SISSYKAY]

@@batthriftcrazy1959 Yes, that was a good deal on the corning ware!

[@audreybabbitt3022]

UNBELIEVABLE … THE SLEIGH OF COURSE..THE PRICE IS UNBELIEVABLE TOO…YOUR FINDS ARE TERRIFIC..
