OP SHOPS! Who else shops there, and why do you love them?

[hammahorror]

I have been buying things from op shops since I was a teenager. I love browsing through the weird and wonderful things you might find.

Some are better than others, sometimes it's nothing but junk and then other times you can walk out with bags of amazing things!

Who else here is addicted to op shopping, and which ones do you think are the best to buy from?

I went to 3 that I remember, 2 in Smithton, I think.   Maybe I was distracted

by the beauty of The Nut and Boat Harbour.

Gawd, I love Tassie

i'm seriously gonna have screaming fits soon,since i'll never get to  oz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

well fine. i'll just get brad to drive me into stranger neighborhoods,lol!!!

[debra9275]

Thanks debra.  My vase doesn't have a frilly top

like the one in the pic I posted, but the same design

and colour.  Signature was hard to read and it's taken

me 2 years to hunt it down on the net.  Boy, was I excited

when I found out what it was.

I bought it because it looks like carnival glass.  I love it

when i'm in florida next year,we should do a mutual OP adventure,that would be great fun! 🙂

i can tell you and show you the florida shops,and viceversa! 😄

[sineaterdoodah]
