Aloha Joanne, Happy Mother's Day! So sorry you didn't get the discount, but I do want to say the elegant depression glass you picked up is gorgeous. I'm no expert on glass but I think it may be Fostoria Fairfax in azure blue. Love the color!

I am with you, that blue color is stunning. Hugs.

[@TMarie-qe5pc]

Great stuff Joanne! I haven't been to Shaba Shabu in ages but I remember their Volcano Roll (I think was the name) being fantastic

Hi Joanne. What a kerfuffle. Doesn't it just get ones goat?! My favorite: the painting I think. Though the ice blue dishes are lovely.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

It sure does. I just love the color of the dishes. Hugs.

[@celtprincess13]

Based on what I could see, I'd say those blue dishes are Imperial Molly but it could also be Fostoria Fairfax. Either way, you should definitely be able to make your money back by piecing it out. And obviously, that's my favorite from today.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

I just love the icey blue color. That is what drew me to them. Hugs.

[@lorineisen2146]

Hi Joanne. Loved the birds needlepoint, and the pale blue glassware. Sorry you missed out on the half off. I missed if this was at a Store or Estate sale… if at a store, and I were you and still had the receipt, if it was dated, would bring it in next time and explain that you weren’t given the discount on that Sale day. Most shops, if they truly value their customers, also value KEEPING them as customers. You might get a nice store credit; never hurts to ask🤷🏻‍♀️ Happy Birthday to your sweet daughter… my youngest daughter recently turned 35… how can that be?! Time really does fly by🥲❤️ Happy Mothers Day! It sounds like you had a perfect weekend💜🌷💙

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

It was a yard sale type sale, no receipts. Live and learn. Yes, time does fly. My mom said, the older you get, the faster it goes. When I was young, I didn't understand what that meant, I do now. Hugs.

[@AAWagner]

So cool you are in Raleigh. We lived on Glenwood for 25 years. Have been in Dallas for six. Love that restaurant. Great for lunch. Miss Raleigh. Steve Minor had best estate sales in my experience. Picking in Dallas is a different experience. Would love to discuss sometime.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

I guess things would be different in Dallas than Raleigh. Pros and cons to everything, right? I was in Texas once, years and years ago in San Antonio to visit my cousin. Hugs.

[@delmorrow896]

Happy Mother’s Day! I’m a stitcher, so I love the needlepoint bird piece. It took a tremendous amount of work, and it looks like it’s beautifully done. Happy birthday, Kaitlyn!

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Thank you for both. I hope you had a wonderful day. Needlepoint, thank you. I didn't know what it was called. Yes, I imagine a lot of work went into that piece and a ton of talent. Hugs.

[@sharonmakowsky172]

Hi, Joanne! Hope you had a great Mothers Day. I had mine yesterday. My daughter and two of my granddaughters took me to lunch and I also got a beautiful white orchid too. We had fun. Her family had plans to take my daughter to a Detroit Tigers game and out to lunch. So that’s what she did. Then one of the other granddaughter made the family dinner. All by herself! Then I talked to my daughter tonight and she told me about her day. I actually spent my day cleaning out junk in my basement. Hugs to all!💜🌷🥰👍 Love the porcelain rose!🌹🌹🌹

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

So you had a Mother's Weekend. How wonderful. Sounds like you had a great time. Even cleaning out junk in the basement can be great. Feels so good after it is done. Hugs from me and my crew.

[@dollygresh4415]

Loved the blanket. Hugs to Lewis. He allowed you to pat him without biting!

He does have his loving moments. Now more than ever before. Hugs from my crew.

[@normafanfan9162]

Love the porcelain rose, I had several of them, don't know what happened to them, somehow lost in various moves.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Funny how that happens. You know you packed things but when it comes time to unpack them, they are gone. How does that happen? Love you!

[@theweatheredfencepost]

Oh no Joanne! I hate that happened. I have learned to pay attention at checkout at that sale. They are dealing with a lot of people and sometimes i think the chaos gets to them. I do believe you will recoup your money and still make a profit but yes ugh it could have been more! 😊

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

I am upset with myself, but it does happen. Life goes on. Hugs.

[@karentaylor1519]

Just found your channel and you said you were raised in Scranton my uncle was a baptist minister Rev Reg Bell he ministered there for many years.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

That old saying is true, "It is a small world." So glad you found me, Karen. Welcome. I hope you enjoy my channel. My family moved there when I was about six years old. I moved away when I was in my mid 20s. My sister still lives there in our family home. Hugs.

[@SassySue67]

Joanne, if your receipt is dated they should honor the half off and give you a refund on the difference if you go back with your receipt.. Happy Mothers Day to you. Glad you had a good day. Happy Birthday to Caitlyn.

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

They don't give you receipts at these kinds of events. I just have to write it up as 'lesson learned' and not let it happen again. Hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day. I will your Birthday wishes on the Kaitlin. Thank you. Hugs.

[@sallyward3791]

Couldn't sleep....caught your episode on UTUBE on tv about your shade garden. I might suggest that you have someone rototill your ivy area. Would be well worth it or you will.fight it forever. It is quicker and easier to pay a bit more to.have someone do it that is used to it. Uou cam rent them, but they are are a bit difficult to use. Can't wait ti see.ot all.when complete!❤❤

[@batthriftcrazy1959]

Great idea, but I am almost finished with it at this point. I did have someone remove the bulk of the ivy for me. Hugs.
