<p>[QUOTE="bercrystal, post: 4523120, member: 88"]I usually only go to Goodwill on Tuesdays when you can get a 25% senior discount on everything. I know I probably miss treasures but it is a way to curb the amount of stuff I drag home. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/tongue.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":p" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/tongue.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":p" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I was on my way home on Friday from a run to the consignment shop where I dropped off a load of packing paper & ended up picking up a few things. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/rolleyes.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/rolleyes.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I drive right past the Goodwill & on a whim decided to drop in for a quick look around. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie17" alt=":bag:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie17" alt=":bag:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>The first thing I saw was a stack of 8 dinner plates that I thought were pretty & was shocked when I turned them over to see they were Spode in the Maritime Rose pattern ($8.95).
