Okay my thrift store find of the week
And it is for resale since I have been taking my granddaughter's clothing to a consignment shop and making quite a bundle.
I found a brand new pink gingham checked bumper pad from Pottery Barn Kids and the matching pink chamois dust ruffle for $3.
I took another crib set and received $50 on it...but it wasn't PBK. I am excited that this consigning might even be better than Ebay without all of the hassles.

1. Good find!
Mine last week was a 16 quart pressure canner for $19.95. Needs a pressure regulator (those things are always missing!) but that won't be hard to find at all.

2. A great deal!
I never thought to use consignment shops. But it does sound easier. Drop it off and pick up the payment when/if it sells. No shipping hassles.

3. No pictures, no crappy buyers, no feedback worries, no fees, no paypal
Wash it and put it on a hanger and drop it off. Pick up my money.
I'm having excellent results with it and most everything is selling.
I am getting my Spring stuff ready. They are taking it Feb 2.
I wasn't sure how happy I would be but this is the way to go.
