Congratulations! I have found even going to Goodwill anymore is a big let down because they pull the good deals and either have a high price on them or put them on ebay or some other site to sell.

They are doing that here. This was not a chain store, and I often shop there for useful items.

Our local Goodwill's prices are too high. The place hubby has his booth (craft mall sort of thing) actually is lower priced than GW. I have found good things at the 'as is' store in back of the GW, before they have a chance to up the price, but that's it.

Yesterday, I went with my daughter to make a donation at the Good Will drop in our town. In the trailer was this darling drop leaf table ... I'm a sucker for such things... so I asked the gentleman, who knows us by name, which store is that going to? He was kind enough to tell me where he thought it will end up. Guess where I am headed this morning?!

My husband good-naturedly says it's a revolving door at Good Will for us!
