Welcome to Thrifty Treasures!

Welcome to Thrifty Treasures. They are located here in O'fallon Illinois. This place Is awesome! there was so much cool stuff in here that I thought would be neat to have and it was all decently priced stuff! I didn't get anything in there this time, I was mostly just snooping around to see what they had since I had never been in there before. This place was loaded with some really cool vintage-y items. The people there seemed pretty nice too. I highly recommend this place. You will find all sorts of wonderful things in there and I will definitely be stopping back by again!

Here is another picture of the store front. It's not a very big place but they do have quite a bit of cool things in here. Definitely worth the stop.

As soon as you walk in the door I noticed this small Mid Century Modern End Table or Bed Table that I thought looked pretty cool and it was only $45 which isn't bad. I also saw this 50s-ish Dinette set with all 4 chairs and leaf included. I didn't catch the price on that one but it looked pretty neat.

In the back rooms I noticed these green mid century chairs stacked up on the top of a shelf. I also saw these white and black mid century Dinette chairs on another shelf that I really liked but I didn't feel like getting them down to see how much they were or the makers on either of these sets of chairs. I looked on the bottoms from where I was standing but I couldn't make out who made them.

Here is some wild pink things that I saw in there! That whole set of bowls and cups and the pitcher and serving dish was in really good condition and although it was all plastic and too pink for my tastes, It was only $35 for the whole set! What a deal! I also thought that this turquoise fan and pink hair dryer were pretty neat too. I'm not sure if they worked but the fan was $15 and the hair dryer was only $5. Not a bad deal for either of those.

In the back rooms I also noticed this 50s baby seat which I'm not sure how much it was and there was this pretty interesting Broiler/Food warmer that I thought was pretty neat. It was only $35 and it looks like it needed a good home and a new coat of paint. I'm not sure I would actually use it to cook food in either.
