I will reminisce back to one of my auction tips and say even at yard/flea sales “SPEAK UP”. I came home with quite a few items but I also lost an awesome deal because I was off to the side discussing whether we could fit it in the car or not. 🙁 The jadeite green, chippy, old doctor’s scale could have been mine for 15 bucks, but I didn’t speak up and someone swooped in (in the 2 minutes I was discussing) and bought it out from under me. Moral to the story………If you like something, MAKE IT KNOWN to the buyer before you discuss!
And now, check out the freebie we scored off of Craigslist last night!

| Each drawer has a key and the keys were all still with it! |
My husband has been scouring Craigslist for something similar to this and you just can’t beat FREE! Plus, IT’S AWESOME! Seven drawers each with their own key. Yay! Can’t wait to find a spot in the house to put this baby.
Now it’s your turn to share. What great items have you scored from yard sales, flea markets, thrift stores, and Craigslist recently?
YOu are such a lucky girl! I love that chest of drawers! And the pillow cases and bird prints rock! Great finds Jessica!
