Thrifting With My Mom


     This past Thursday my Mom and struck out down US HWY 19 to find some thrift shops. We love not having a "plan" but just going with the flow. We'll both be looking for thrift shops, goodwills', to stop at. We have been known to turn around for a thrift store!

Loved that this thrift shop loves our Florida Gators!!

I love the corner shelf! (i took this pic in hopes that my hubby will make me one or two or three.)

I loved this old vintage refridgerator!

     We also stopped at Kirkland's in Brooksville. It's a home decor store and the first time we'd ever stopped there! There prices were awesome!!! Here' s a few pics from their store:
This pic doesn't do this little tree justice! It was adorable and screamed "PLEXUS". I can just see this sitting on our Plexus table at events! I didn't buy it...this time!!

I love these signs!!

Moma did buy this! It's a mason jar tea dispenser!! This was an awesome find!

I"m planning on using this at our next Plexus event!! It's the perfect color!

Moma bought this cute bunny sign to hang on her front door. She just knew that Kason would love it!

No I didn't buy this..Moma just wanted my picture of holding something Easter! lol

Can you guess where we ate!?

Yes! Cracker Barrel!! :)

I really did like these mushroom canisters. They scream the 70's!!! No I didn't buy these. ;)



Here's a two cute owls that were at Cracker Barrel. 

Here's what I did buy:
I dearly love this Pyrex bowl!! It was marked $7.99. While standing in line, the cashier kind of hollers to everyone, "everything is 1/2 price today!" This really made my day. :)

I love chevron designs!!! 

This cute little owl was 1/2 price at Michael's!! I paid $5.00 for him! I love owls!!!

Moma and I had a great day together. We didn't have to spend hundreds of dollars to have a good time. As long as we are together is all that matters!!! 

Until Next Time....

Goodwill & Thrift Shop Finds!!



Last Thursday, Moma and I took US Hwy 19 south all the way to Hudson, FL. Moma was looking for a particular thrift shop but we ended up not being able to find it. So we turned around and started back north. I lost count of how many Thrift Shops & Goodwills we stopped at. It was a bunch!!

We had so much fun going in each shop. You just never know what you'll find. Sometimes we didn't find anything. Then there were some that we found several items we couldn't live without.

We ate lunch around 1:15 at the Olive Garden. It was so good!! Moma and I always have a good time even if all we do is go into ole' stinkin' Walmart. :)

Here's my finds for the day:


I'm loving the lamp I found. It reminds me of milk glass, but I'm not really sure if it is or just a replica of some kind. It doesn't really matter because I love it!

 I was thrilled to find the green Pyrex bowl. I'm a lover of vintage Pyrex & Corning Ware dishes. I can't wait to one day have a china cabinet to display all of my dishes. Who said I had to display fine china?

 I found some cute little white pillow cases with pretty eyelet trim. I'm thinking I'll use them as a doily.

  I feel in love with the flowery pillow cases. It has red trim which will match my red comforter. They are in the wash getting ready to find there home on my bed.

 I have plans for the basket. I'm going to hang it on my bathroom wall with small towels rolled up and put them in the basket. 

 It's the little things in life that can make you happy. This is true of this little owl. This is my favorite find of the day! I'm happy to say she has a good home now. She was only $1.25!!( I love owls in case you didn't know.) 

I had much rather go to Goodwill & Thrift shops rather than the mall. I can make my money go a lot futher that's for sure. I like the idea of not knowing what I'll find. It's addicting!

I'm so glad that I have a job that is very flexible. Moma drove so I could work from my phone. I was answering questions about Plexus, helping customers and potential customers and I even had to talk to an Ambassador. This was all fine because I'm thankful I have a job that's helping people and it's growing like crazy!!!! 
If you happen to know of someone who has diabetes, chronic pain such as Arthritis, Fibromyalgai, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Chrones Disease, Plexus may be the answer for them. It's helped my Fibro pain by 80%. Plexus is all natural and we have a 60 day money back guarantee. So you honestly can't go wrong. WHAT IF, this is your answer? It will also help you lose weight. I've lost 37 lbs so far!! I'm extremley pleased with Plexus. I wish I could shout from my roof top how Plexus can help you. Please send me an email if you would like more information at Amee0521@gmail.com or go to my site: Amee's Plexus Site 
I look forward to hearing from you!!


Until Next Time~
