Vintage Thursday Thingies

Here are a few "Thingies" I found that I wanted to share...
I love my local Thrift Store. It is actually a consignment/thrift store. About 3 times a year I will take in a bunch of stuff that I am tired of looking at or am just too lazy to sell on Ebay and let Diane the owner put it in Thrift Store. I keep a running balance so that when I need a :::fix::: of thrift shopping I can just use my acquired balance and it is almost like shopping for free.

Here are a few things I found this week... First "Mr Peanut" jar. It is plastic and I think it will do very well in Ebay. It is different and unique.


Next is a cute collection of "Flintstones" cups (glass) that you use to get with McDonaldsHappy Meals. These brought back a lot of memories when my kids were little.


Could not let this go! A Homer Laughlin Creamer. I do not yet know the pattern, do you? Its just so darn cute.
