Somewhere to keep track of my Op Shopping and Treasure Finding for the year. I love to find a bargain and I love to share my finds with like minded shoppers.

bright Orange on a dull Day
Wednesday was a cold, wet, grey day in Melbourne, and I had to go out on an errand, so, what better way to cheer up than with a quick stop-off at an Op Shop?
To my amazement, I found not only this wonderful green and orange table cloth, in great condition, for a bargain price, but also...
this lovely trio of vintage Tupperware. Funny thing is I saw these on another blog last week and thought, how cute I remember buying some like that in the 1970s when I was a Tupperware Lady. Now I have another set (my original ones are long gone!), too many house moves since then.
I also found a nice hand knitted (in nylon ribbon), handbag with bamboo handles, how very, very 1970s. So, 10 minutes to spare landed me a great haul.
Now, I'm off to the hairdressers.. only 1 Oppy I usually stop off at on that trip.

ReplyDeleteI love those tupperware, dishes, I've been keeing my eye out for a set. Enjoy your hair cut, I always love a trip to the hairdresser.
ReplyDeleteLove your finds - especially the Tupperware - I remember it well! If its any consolation - it was a grey, cold, wet and miserable day here in Scotland yesterday - and this is our summer!
