I had some sucess finding some new shirts and pants for me, but my best finds were for my kids (of course).
A few years ago I saw a Stokke Tripp Trapp chair at the Saver's, but I decided not to buy it. I've had a little bit of thrifter's remorse ever since then. Especially since Kid 2 refuses to sit on a booster seat at the table, and he could use the extra height to reach his food. Lucky for me I found another one last week for only $5. Yippee! Kid 2 loves his new chair, and thinks it's so cool that it is shaped like an upside down '7'.

This last find was actually something I bought years ago at a DI when we lived in Utah. It was one of those baby girl things that I had to buy even though I had no idea if I'd ever have a little girl to wear it.
I love the new tags. It's funny how some things like food were much cheaper years ago, but prices for clothes haven't changed as much as you would think. Years ago it was much more expensive to make clothing, and much of it was made in North America.
Have you found anything good lately at your favourite thrift stores?

I LOVE the chair. I'm longing for something JUST like that for Daphne. We had one growing up and I'm actually wondering what happened to it? I'm sure it's long gone and likely went to some thrift store somewhere where some happy someone found it like you :)
I love the chair, too! What a great find. Most of my recent finds have been for myself--3 cardigans for a couple of dollars each (perfect for fall) and a bunch of new shirts to spice up my fall wardrobe. But your chair, that takes the cake.
I am very happy to read this. This is the kind of manual that needs to be given and not the .....
