Thirft Shop Treasures!

This weekend I made my first visit to the local thrift shop. Let me just say there will be many more trips in the future!!!
 1. I couldn't believe all the "stuff" they had
and 2. How cheap it all was!
As a grad student who doesn't have much of an income cheap is my best friend!!!

So here is what I got....

A pair of New York and Company black dress pants $3.99

A black t-shirt from Express $2.99

A couple dress shirts from Gap for the boyfriend $2.99 a piece

If you Give a Cat a Cupcake by Laura Numeroff $.49


Stellaluna Pop-up book by Janelle Cannon $.99


and Thank You Mr. Falker by Patrica Polacco $.49



All for under $20.00!!!!

 This girl was one happy camper walking out. Got to love a bargin!! This little thrift shop will be seeing me a lot especially to expand my future classroom library. They have a great selection of children books on all levels and topics! Woohooo!

Take Two...

So here is my second attempt at becoming a blogger! Let's just say I've been more of a "lurker" than a writer. But, I am going to try to change that. I am a little bit obsessed with teaching blogs (okay, maybe a lot obsessed!) so I decided why not start my own and honestly, I have NO idea what I'm doing! So this is take two. First attempt...FAIL. Second attempt.. hopefully a little more successful. I have been up since 4am trying to figure out how to work this thing, and so far I have a pretty background WOOHOO!!! So let's see what happens....
