Since this is Thrify Thursdays the cooking edition, I'll only talk about my kitchen finds.
At GoodWill, I found a spice rack:
I've been searching for glass containers for my array of different spices and herbs that are taking up cupboard space. This set is brand new with plastic shaker tops and screw on lids. They are just waiting for me to find the perfect little labels for them. ;) $2.99 for the this set.
Last weekend, I found this wok at a yard sale.
It was pretty dusty from sitting in the lady's basement but other than that in excellent condition. It was never used. She even kept the booklets that came with it. There's lots of recipes included in the booklets. Yay! For $1.00, I couldn't pass it up!
Has anyone else had luck at thrift stores or yard sales? I'd love to hear what you've found.
I'm still searching for a set of ramekins. I know that there's a set of 4 or more out there somewhere for a really good (aka cheap) price. I know that someone like me has them sitting on a shelf collecting dust and that one day they are going to set them out for me to find. I know this because I did just that... I bought 8 new ramekins from an Oneida outlet store in NY years ago. I never used them so I gave them to GoodWill....and now I'm kicking myself for it. Yes, I could go buy a new set of 4 for $10. or more but what fun would that be?!?
Are you searching for something like this?

I've been going to yard sales for years and have found so many good deals. Have raised lots of children and bought second hand clothes this way and they were always dressed nice. It's a fun Saturday morning adventure.
Wow, you did great! I love the spice rack, especially the look of it with the glass and silver.
