There is no denying it; I have been bitten by the thrift-store-flea-market-yard-sale bug. :-)
My husband has stood back and watched with much amusement and surprise as I've come home on a weekly basis with lovely vintage items and all at a small cost. Bruce has teased me at how excited I get when I come across a real "find" not quite understanding what all the fuss is about. Then today all that changed.
While on the other side of town Bruce stopped at a shabby looking thrift store and gave thrifting a try. This is what he found...a handsome two-toned blue Smith-Corona Galaxie Twelve typewriter!! For $5, marked down from $10, he purchased the typewriter, brought it home, opened the case and asked "did I do good?" I'm positive it's the first time Bruce has ever seen me squeal with delight at being given a $5 gift! So now he's starting to get "it" or so it seems for I did overhear him on the phone with my sister this evening bragging about his awesome "find." lol
Happy Halloween to you.It is very interesting,Thank you for sharing this to us
