Felt under the weather for the past 2 weeks and am now finally getting to post my latest purchases story! 😃

Once upon a time there was a lady who had an addiction to bargain hunting (I'm sure you can guess who that is!😉)! This lady always knows that right after Christmas all the decorations are drastically reduced and she just so happened to end up at Hobby Lobby in Beavercreek! While perusing the marked down Christmas ornaments she found these adorable fashionista dolls (there is a couple more styles too!), these gorgeous high heel shoes and these golfing Santas! With her addictive shopping lifestyle she bought every single one of them! Her addiction didn't stop there, oh no, she had to go to the Dayton Mall Hobby Lobby to buy out what they had too!!

Actually, to tell the truth, I (I mean she😉!) shouldn't have bought anything as she still has some bargains in inventory that she bought at last years Christmas clearance!!

The moral to this story is that this is an addiction that is fun which makes it soooo hard to kick (if I really wanted to lol!)!! 🥰

UPDATE: I totally forgot to come back and answer my own question lol! Betty Jackson, you were right! These stringholders would hang on the wall in the kitchen so that when food needed to be wrapped up in butcher paper for safe keeping they would use the string to tie the package up. There were no ziploc baggies back then lol! 😃

I'm sure the string was was used for many other purposes too! 👍

We're going to play, for fun, the "What Is It" game?😃

Open up the picture and take a look! Say what you think they are and what they were used for!

Some will know right away and some will say, "What in the world???"!😂

Update: Well that didn't take long! It sold last Friday after only a couple days listed (that normally doesn't happen!)! I accepted an offer of $55 and now it's headed to Germany! 😃

I found this funny looking purse at an Estate Sale last week and realized it may be funny looking (covered in little telephone cords!) but it definitely has some value! Paid $4 for it, let's see how it does!

Purse / Handbag! I just acquired this very interesting purse. I had never seen a purse like this. and had to get it for my purse collectors! Platic Coil. (See Photos). on a few areas but you have to look closely.

Ok, I said I'm going to get back into posting to my Xenia Vintage page, well, here we go!😃

Last Saturday I picked up this gorgeous Russian punch bowl set at an Estate sale in Bellbrook! I LOVE picking up things that are not the norm and this sure fit the bill when it caught my eye sitting prominently in the middle of the dining room table!😄

Free Advice: If you're a reseller ALWAYS make sure you have your handy dandy pocket computer (Smart Phone!😁) with you at all times so you can look up what you're thinking about buying and see if it would be a good resale!

Now, back to the story, armed with this information from my pocket computer, I then do the dance! When I shop I'm a bargainer (actually that's an understatement lol!) but in this situation being it was the first day of the sale I had to pay the full price of $40😭!

Does this story end in sadness because of having to pay full price no but wait, my handy dandy computer told me that this punch bowl set had recently sold between $100 - $150! I then knew I had made a good deal even without the bargaining (which I LOVE to do!😁)

I will keep you all posted on how well it does on ebay. It may take awhile as I never know when someone will "walk" into my ebay store and fall in love with it!🥰
