Buyer Beware> I have bought items from Goodwill off and on for the past few years. We didn't have a store close by. One thing you need to check is the outrageous shipping charges and handling charges. I saw a lovely metal vintage style tea pot I would love to have....bid 3.00 reasonable............shipping 10.00........handling.....2.00. Hmmmmmmmmmm tea pot not so attractive at 15.00 and that's if you get it for the 3.00 bid. I love looking thru all the items Goodwill has but some of their shipping rates are way out of line. All these items are donated and I know for a fact it doesn't cost 10.00 to ship one tea pot. Don't want to rain on your parade just want to make you aware. I also bounce between goodwill and ebay and yes I am a wicked sniper...............LOL Does anyone remember Andy's Warehouse Auction? It was run by Fingerhut no less..........oooooooooh the bargains I got there and their shipping was reasonable. How i miss them. There were a couple others but I don't remember the names. Sigh! Hmmmmmmmmm maybe I should google. Then there's freecycle.............I can't begin to tell you all the goodies I have gotten off there. Ok so I belong to 5 different ones.............:) I subscribe to all that are within a 50 mile radius and try to pick up two or more items on one trip if possible. Anybody watch the Junk Brothers? Boy would I like to find some of the loot they find. And that Workshop............ ChelCass

Nona, the smallest big butterfly was $11 I think. I picked up a pretty big one first, and it was $14. Then I saw a really huge one but didn't check price. Probably $19-20. My big ol' skinny rooster was $15. His body is PURPLE and white, LOL, so you can understand why he was calling to me to take him home. I may have to get a butterfly next time tho, they are really cool. I thought all Goodwills did a half off day. Ours here do them twice a month I think. Tues is seniors day, so I often go then too. Hope my 'new' camera comes fast, I feel like I'm missing an apendage without one. LOL. Honestly, my camera is always within reach! Mostly cause dogs and cats make such great photo ops. Grandkids aren't bad either, LOL. hugs, Karen

Bumping on down ...

After I asked if you took it I thought I remembered you posting it before. It's a neat picture, but I agree that cropping and playing with it makes it much more "art" like. I'm going to check out Winkflash for printing some of my photography since I plan one making a couple gallery walls showcasing my folks and my photography and a family photo wall too.
