Back to the Antique Mall

Went on my second ever trip to antique malls a few days ago with a friend.  It is so much fun seeing all the lovely vintage things.  The high prices are both good and bad; for the items that I already have, it was fun to see what a bargain I got on my pieces in comparison, but for the ones that I don`t have and want, it`s very very sad.  Not everything is priced sky high, in fact it was very interesting seeing the price differences between different booths.  I was able to find a few reasonably priced Pyrex pieces that I was happy to pick up because it`s not too likely that I`ll find them thrifting.

My first friendship for $10.
 Some more butterprint!  :)  The medium fridgie was $9, the butter dish was $8.50 and the 403 was $7.

I think I spent more on gas driving there than on my Pyrex...the gas prices these days are just so crazy!!

    I have the same Butterprint pieces, only my bowl is a 401 - I saw a Butterprint Turquoise cinderella bowl set of 3 - it was $22 - I've been thinking about it ever since......

    $22 is pretty good...we saw some butterprint 444s for $10 to $15 by itself and not in perfect condition or anything.

    Those are great prices for all of them. Even if you'd found them at VV they would have been priced the same.
