Good Afternoon!! I hope you all had a great weekend!!
This week I ran in to the local goodwill before heading to my great aunts. I found a cute Whiting and Davis handbag for .99 cents!! I was soo excited!! It is in great condition for its age!! I am trying to use smaller handbags verses a "suitcase", as my husband calls them. We'll see how long I carry it.
My next door neighbors were having a huge yard sale last weekend. I decided to walk over and see what they had. Oh boy did they have some good stuff!! I so did not need what I bought but I just couldn't help myself. I bought a old wooden box that was from a fruit company (sorry, no pic), a Holland Mold Christmas tree with the base, it still had the protective wrapper around the light bulb! Talk about excited, it was a mere 3.00...Now to order the bulbs from eBay.
(sorry for the blurry pic)
In my looking around I found this vintage cooler. I fell in love with it!! I contemplated asking the price thinking he would want way more than I was willing to pay..I finally asked and he only wanted $12. No debating there, she came home with me. Brandon wanted to use it, that is until he picked it up, it is soo heavy, its all metal. She now sits on our hearth. He also had a vintage Coleman cooler I picked up for a friend.
There you have it for this weeks treasures. Be sure and head over to Rhoda's and check out some more!! Have a great and blessed week!!

I haven't kept up with prices on Whiting and Davis bags... which I think are the nicest...but at 99cents you know you SCORED!
Never heard of Whiting & Davis, but that is a very cute purse. I'll have to read up on those. Love the old cooler, that is too cute.
I'm so jealous! I would LOVE to find a cooler like that! And I like the tree too--I've got two of them myself! Great finds!
Very great finds!!

These are fabulous finds! I especially like the christmas tree!
Hey...I have one of those Christmas trees, my husband made it a long long time ago ... way before he met me. We put it out every year :-)
Lovely grouping with the fan.
Wow, great finds, love the purse! :O)
I love the cooler!!! How did they used to carry those heavy suckers, anyway? We are spoiled with our extendable pulls and wheels! LOL
I am soooooo coming to your house, with a truck, and I am going to wait until you leave, then I am going to get that cakeplate, the fan, the cooler and whatever else I find...LOL!!! LOVE it!
Love the cooler. Never heard of the bag maker. But I'm not much into designers for purses or otherwise. But 99 cents for a purse is a great deal no matter what.
Wow, what a fabulous purse. I can't believe how expensive purses are, and you found a great one for a great deal.
The cooler is fabulous. I'm sure you were delighted with that find. Love the red. The fan on top is great too.
Sorry I haven't been over much lately, hope to be better this week. We have no real plans this week and that makes me very happy.
Awesome finds!! Glad to have found your blog! :)

I bet that tree will look great all lit up. My mom used to have one similar to that, but it was silver.
Blessings!
Love the cooler! Great find!
