This is the only place I feel safe posting my valuable finds. I decided to post my speedy on another website but people immediately were bullying me based upon it’s supposed “fakeness,” calling me nasty for defending myself against the barrage of vitriolic comments ( even private messages calling me an “idiot and a loser.”) Thank you everyone for making this an inviting, wonderful thread to be a part of. ❤️

I really dont understand why people do that.
I am so jelly but also really excited for you to find such a gem.
What is so hard about saying what a great find and enjoy it...and just hoping you find one yourself one day.
 
I found this Prada gaufre this week for $32. I’ve found a few nylon And leather prada bags before but this one is my fave so far. all of the little details Like discreet side pockets and hefty leather handle make it a very functional, quality bag! I also found this leather gucci Hobo bag for $19. The Leather is very delicate, so I’ll have to store it carefully.

Went to the Sal Val today, found this Chanel WOC that needs repair but I don’t care I’m sending her out ASAP :smile:. 21.00

Nice! The sally Annes in my area are truly awful...like Calvin Klein for $50. Everything behind cabinets and overpriced. this surprises me because SA is near other thrift stores that regularly have high-end items - but never Sally Anne.

Those are awesome.
I dont own a prada yet but someone said trying a nylon one would be a good way to get into the brand.
But that Gucci looks even better.

Thank you Narnanz! It's really sad that when a woman defends herself from unsolicited, harsh criticisms it's immediately labelled as "aggression" or "being nasty." What's funny is that what made my bag "fake" is that the stitching is crooked. Um... the bag is curved along the top... I was floored. I left that group - I'll never support a community so toxic! You guys are my safe space and sisters in fashion! Thank you everyone!

Most of the Salvation ARMY in this state closed

Apologies, about the low quality of photos...got a lot going on over here. My students got their SAT scores back and they thanked me for doing so well. A lot of them said they did better with English than math, so administration gave me six 11th grade classes next school year. Well, last year I had four. What is an additional two?

Congrats, Tomsmom on the Chanel. I get constant stares when I take my keepalls out. I don't think I will ever sell them.

The ladies at the flea market missed the belts, so I got them...

Authentic Gucci belt $3
Authentic Burberry belt $3
Nwt rock & republic dress $2
Ted baker bag $2
Chloe dress $5

Be back with a few more things.

Large Lambertson Truex laptop/computer bag for $1

Vintage new Asian rice bowl set $3

Bar stools for the bar $1 A piece.

Everything from the flea market. Savers is too high over here. Only shopping at the flea market and the vendor I bought the truex said there is a rumor they may have to close because of the pandemic.

Stay safe everyone.

Holy cow Tomsmom!!! Tell me everything! When did you know it was authentic? How many beats did your heart skip? Was there someone stalking you in hopes you will put it down? Did you do a dance?
it’s glorious and I can not believe that price. Good for you, enjoy it in good health and post more pics once she is fixed up.
