Last Thursday I stopped at a mission store in my area. In the houseware area on a low shelf I found 2 America chargers, marked $1.99 each. I took them to the counter to pay for them, where I found out they were half price. The one on top was the Dog Charger and I really didn't look at the lower one until she was wrapping it up - when I saw that it was the Elephant Charger. .......I found that so funny, to get an Elephant Charger for $1! When I got my original Elephant Charger back in the days of the Ebay wars I am sure that I paid over $100 to finally get one ( I don't know what the amount I paid actually was). So don't give up on checking those resale shops. Once in awhile you find something!! (Margaret, you can use this story in the newsletter if you have a spot to fill).
What an awesome find! And such an unbelievable deal too!! I can't beat your story, but, I've a couple good ones....A few years ago I found the America fruit mold at my local goodwill for $3.95!!! More recently I found the America deviled egg platter for $3.00 at my favorite flea market. Can't wait to run into the lamps
I watched that auction, it was the colored mold pictured at the top of this page. My fruit mold isn't the "colored" one, just solid yellow...still a rare find, but not as valuable as the colored ones.
The woman who sold that colored fruit mold on Sunday, bought the mold at a local flea market. The woman who sold my colored fruit mold, bought it at a yard sale-paid about $12.00 for it! We need to be beating the bushes at local yardsales and flea markets!
