The Best Thrifty Find Ever.

Hello!
Here is the best thrifty find I have ever found!vintage 1970s Samsonite.
It is amazing and awesome.
I liked it because it matched my decor. I had no idea what I got my hands on at all.
They sell on ebay all the time for 30-80 dollars.
I paid $5 for it at a goodwill.
My husband is convinced we should try to sell it on Ebay.
He doesn't understand why I don't want to part with it if it will make us money :)
Men! (eye roll)
I love this so much! Im not sure I could ever give it up!

What is your favorite thrifty find of all time?
Could you part with it to make a profit?

Happy Shopping!

  13. Don't sell it! You will probably not find it again for such a good price.
    My best buy was a first edition graphic novel which I bought for 2 euro at a fleamarket. So not going to sell it even though I could probably get lots more for it. It's from my favourite graphic novel series Blake and Mortimer.
