But I thought you should know -- it's a rare trip to the Goodwill that I
don't see a perfectly good bread machine for sale.  Generally around $10.

Speaking of which, my Salvation Army can opener (purchased several years
ago, fairly new and in perfect condition) went on the fritz recently, so I
was looking for a "new" one.  Last week, at my fave little local thrift
store, called Yesterday's Treasures, I got a Black & Decker "Gizmo," which
is a cordless and hands-free can opener.  It takes some getting used to, but
it's a pretty cute and handy little thing.  It came in the original box with
all the papers, etc.  They were having a half-price sale on everything in
the store that day, so I got it for $3.  I feel good.



Gotta love shopping used.  :-)

My best recent used purchase was a queen-sized sleigh bed for my new master bedroom. It's 3 years old and looks new. The original owners paid $800. I paid them $200. :-)

And does everyone know about freecycle?
