I paid a visit this month to the Goodwill’s store in Cuyahoga Falls. It’s smaller than the store on Waterloo, but the shelves were packed full, which meant I got to do what I love to do most, dig!
I’ve learned sometimes even when you dig, you don’t see everything on the first pass through so it’s my rule of thumb to always do a second and sometimes even third look before going to check out.
On my second pass through the housewares section, a turquoise container caught my eye. I gave it a quick once-over and it didn’t look like anything I could use, so I started to walk away.
But my thrifty intuition told me to go open the container. Lo and behold, I found this turquoise gem inside!
It’s a turquoise, Smith Corona Corsair Typewriter in great condition! And the price… only…a mere…$5! And of course I was there on customer appreciation day so I got an additional 35% off! Yowzers that’s a great deal!
In addition to the typewriter, I also found two gold rope mirror sconces that were $3 each.
I guess it’s time for me to update my entry table!
Two thumbs up for Goodwill Cuyahoga Falls! Not only for the treasures I found but for the workers there too!
Both the cashier and the gentleman working at the donation drop-off center were good-spirited and helpful. There’s no doubt I’ll be stopping back soon!
Happy Thrifting,
Katie
