I still go, it's slim pickings out there. I do ok, but use to do better. Stores are oversaturated with "new" thrifters. They pile everything up in their baskets and then check on their phones, and put back what they don't want. Also, I believe people don't take for granted what they have before donating anymore. More than likely, they are selling online as well. Well all I can say is "what's for you, is for you", don't give up. Keep thrifting ladies and tomorrow, I will post what I've found. We need to inspire each other.

Your good thrifting vibrations worked lady!! Manolos that are my size, basically new, for $24.99 ( $19.99 with my discount.) What a lovely birthday treat.
Ooooo HAPPY BIRTHDAY! The shoes are lovely and you lucky ducky, they are black!

Thank you!! It's coming up shortly but these are definitely dinner shoes! It's nice that I get to break them in.

I did some more research on the Manolo Blaniks. It turns out they're called the Carolyne pump. From what I have seen they're anywhere from $695 - $895 USD but those numbers are usually for the regular leather version. It still astonishes me how these lovely items end up at a smelly thrift store in one of the sketchiest parts of town. I normally do not wear heels but these will be for special occassions like sitting on my bed, waiting for my back to heal ( or heel in this case)
