I dont want to do 'IT' alone anymore...

'IT', being junking!
I found a sale by accident, and pulled over quickly! Walked extremely fast, almost broke into a jog! Scanned the shop, and went in for the kill, found 4 pieces of furniture! Then I walked extremely fast, almost breaking into a jog, and spoke to the lady behind the counter, pointing out what I wanted to buy.She yelled out to the guy in the back, to help me load them into the car! I was grinning from ear to ear, so happy with my purchases, and all done in a matter of minutes!
But as I backed my car into the drive to load them in, I was almost attacked by a woman, angry with me for taking so much.She said Im greedy, and hadnt left anything for anyone else! She was checking out this bedside table like it was made of gold!

Thankfully, I got away unharmed, this time. I think I need a friend or bodyguard with a get away car next time, I need to be more prepared.....maybe with the economy the way it is, people are getting a little crazy? I felt guilty, maybe she really needed it! Ok, guilt gone!! Here are the great finds I almost died for, I hope they are worth it!


I had to laugh, after reading my last post ,what a difference a week can make. It looks like Autumn has stolen my gorgeous green trees, the place looks deserted! Is there something going on, I dont know about? Hubby's gone away to Adelaide, daughter has gone to Port Maquarie, son has gone to Golbourn, and my other daughter is working on the weekend.So Im home alone...!

Does anyone want to come junking with me ? It's a bit risky, but fun??

Oh, just wanted to share my new additions to the 'Stationery department', on the website, go take a look in my studio items.

  1. Lordy! The gall of the woman!! It's always first in best dressed at a sale and junk/garage etc.. then doubly so. We have all watched others who have got to 'it' just moments before we saw 'it' and longingly watched 'it' leave the building in someone elses hands. I subscribe to the logic, if I missed out then I wasn't meant to have it. Good luck with whatever you do with what YOU were meant to have :)
