I agree aboutall the ingredients for successful thrifting. I would add imagination to the list, and a smattering of know-how. If you have those things aswell, you stand more chance of bagging a bargain that others will turn their nose up at,usually because it's too far gone or too hideous an object for others to want to buy. It's certainly worked for me over the last 25 years or so!Scarlethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01729719876504930455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5015030219140669520.post-12240044306942094062011-12-05T14:02:49.333+00:002011-12-05T14:02:49.333+00:00Squeakmom - buy it and hide it!

And the tv cabinet is fab too.<br /><br />My husband keeps a watchful eye on my charity shop purchases so I've had to leave loads of nice things for someone else to buy. Every one of my Magpie Monday posts could include details of lovely things I saw but didn't buy. But I am starting to see the benefits of not stockpiling too much stuff.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08063220599409166120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5015030219140669520.post-45596360525664475782011-12-05T11:39:27.584+00:002011-12-05T11:39:27.584+00:00Gorgeous tiles and what a nifty set of drawers.
