Title: Another deal at Goodwill.
Post by: STRIPER LOU on September 30, 2016, 10:22:58 PM
Went to GW the other day and found this thin, vertical cabinet for $9.99.

It was 20% off  and came to 8 and change. It looked like it was never used. Had 1 pin missing for the shelves and was able to make one out of a large nail.

Wiped it down, secured it to the ceiling behind my curtain for protection and put my partial collection of Monofils in it. They actually had 4 of them and went back the other day to see if any were left at the 50% off sale.
NADA!

We also have a Salvation Army in Hamden. They have some unbelievable furniture at times. I'm a big fan of SA as they treated us like royalty when we were in the service! I donate to them whenever I have a chance.

All have a great evening,  ..  Lou

Yeah, that's what my ol' man said about the S.A., during WW2. They 'ed do a-lot to get a guy home for family emergencies, etc., while the Red Cross didn't come close, help or $-wise. I shop in either a the 2 we have on the island. It's the only way I can afford the silk(best material) Ahloa type shirts. Them bell ringers in fronta the grocery stores get something from me at X-Mas time.

I agree! CD sized slots working out really nicely for displaying the reels!
