Logging the CUUH 2010: July 8th and 16th

hot both weeks

spent $1.50 last week
$10.25 this week

Joe wasn't feeling well and stayed home on the 8th, and I didn't find much, so last week's cuuh logging was delayed until today

Quite a few sales today, and seemed to be more people shopping than in the past few weeks

This week's (7-16) cuuh:

insulated lunch bag--50 cents
5 very nice women's leather belts--1.25/all
Rowenta clothes steamer brush--3
2 lidded brass pots from Syria--50 cents/both
handful of hair-ties and clips--1/all
2 cloth napkins--50 cents/both
set of 4 blue cloth napkins--$1/all
glass (florist's) frog--50 cents
frosted glass vase (that we are going to use for a lamp lens)--50 cents
package of heat tape (for gutters, pipes, etc)--25 cents

Close up of one of the hair clips, the nicest one, a metal butterfly ponytail clip with rhinestones!!!

very nice vinyl bag, no tears or stains, working zipper--25 cents
beautiful woven bag from Syria, filled with the 6 little lamps, also from Syria--free

Joe got chatting with a very nice woman having a sale, about the glass frog he was buying, telling her how he planned to fill the holes with LEDs and turn it into a very decorative light fixture. She thought that was great, and she then pulled out the bag with the little lamps and showed them to him, telling him that she had brought them back here, hoping to find a way to use them here. But now she is moving and doesn't want to take them with her, so she offered them to Joe if he thought he could use them. She even through in the bag they were in, so it was easily "deal of the day" (and I thought those 25 cent leather belts would be hard to beat!). And yes, the 2 little Syrian lidded pots were also from her sale, priced right, mostly.

"The best selling car in the world" Pat wanted one for the grandkids, found this one for $8 (not included in cuuh totals, since it is reimbursed)
