Behold the Alpha and Omega Thrift Store, this beauty just opened and it's directly next to my "hidden thrift store" (where I got my awesome art bits and earlier, a fun vintage haul) at my favorite beach, Vilano Beach. It was closed when I visited on Sunday but I could see excellent treasures within.
I declare Saturday of next week my "Thrifting in Saint Augustine" day. I encourage any Jacksonville readers to come along; why not? Let's make it a party!
What would you do? Go back for it, to at least obtain and possible resell the cool kit? Or leave it for another collector with the picture as a memory?

There aren't many good thrift stores around me, so I'm jealous. There is a Goodwill every five feet, but they always price too high.
ReplyDeleteYes indeed, Goodwill prices are getting out of hand. I love our local thrift stores that make bargains. I'm grateful to have so many thrift stores and options available here in Florida.
ReplyDeleteI'd have bought it immediately. I love picnic baskets with the picnic items in them - and I do use mine! What was the price?
ReplyDeleteI believe it was $11. I need to start using mine while the weather is this nice!
ReplyDeleteGo back, go back, go back. Cool colors and those thermoses are awesome.
ReplyDeleteI've been really getting into thrift stores lately. I hope you go back and get that picnic basket--
ReplyDeleteBrexton! Sirram! Very re-saleable item even if it's not quite something for you. But I think that it's high time we bring back the old-fashioned picnic!
ReplyDeleteRuby- nice to know! But I agree, outdoor meals are beautiful. I miss them!
