My Goodwill super-bargain!
Today I stopped at Goodwill and hit the jackpot! I got 10 pieces of fabric, totaling 45 (yes, - 45) yards of fabric plus a king size batting for a total of $15!!!!! Yippee!
I was going to post a picture of the fabric, but I can not figure out how to post it using my iPhone! |
congratulations! You did super good. someone there missed the value of these items. you have lots of future projects there!
|
Wowzer! Good for you
|
Happy dance for you 0;-)
|
Wow, that is a very nice find. I hope you have a great time creating with it. :)
|
Good for you, don't you just love the Goodwill.
Let the quilting begin, enjoy. |
Wow sounds like you really did hit the jackpot, Congrats!!
|
I never find fabrics at the Goodwill stores here, but there prices on other stuff seems to be really high. I have had some luck at Amvets as they have half price sales all the time. Congratulations on your great find. Looking forward to seeing the pics.
|
Great find!!!
|
You did really well , just the batting alone would have been more than $15.00 ( depending on fiber) . What a fabulous find, bet you go back there again ..soon.
|
yipee!!!! I've heard that JoAnns donates fabric to GoodWill but I have never found any like that. I did get about 12 yards of a summery bird print for 6 bucks once. I may not have bought it at the store but for that price it certainly came home with me!!!
|
Have fun with it ! I never find ANYTHING like that at Goodwill ... must be someone working at ours who sews or quilts !
|
You were fortunate our local Goodwill and Salvation Army stores are high on fabrics. It kinda ticks me off sometimes thinking everything is donated to them. I wonder about people who are shopping there because they have to.
|
We have several local quilt shops but no good thrift stores around here. Lucky for you! Oh, when I take pics on my iPod I usually email them to myself, then open with my computer to post or whatever.
|
wow! Now that's a great find!:thumbup:
|
what a great score-bargain of the day
|
They never have any fabric at our Goodwill! BooHoo
|
Great deal!
|
I brought back over 400 pounds of fabric from Goodwill, 99 cents a yard. Being a snowbird payed off there as our Goodwill at home will not except fabric. It took 7 extra large spaceage bags to get it home.

I hit a very good bargain at a garage sale last week. I got 2 of the grocery bags from walmart of fabric, one piece was more than 6 yards, a very nice paisley. plus quite a bit more of a yard or two and lots more for only $5.00 and the lady knew what she had because she is or was a quilter. Great buy.

That a real good find.
|
Sounds like a great day at the Goodwill Store. Enjoy your fabrics!
|
you sure scored big time
|
WOW, what a good deal. Our Goodwill doesn't have anything that is very good. The good stuff must go somewhere else and we get the junk.
|
WOW, what a find. How many different fabrics? Big pieces of yardage? Nice.
|
If you have an iPhone can't you just send it through the cloud and stream it into your computer. That is if you have the iPhone 4s. I live in So. CA and our goodwill has no fabric. SIGH
|
on regular cell phones that you have texting on, you can put your email addres in the contact information.
[email protected] I email pictures to myself, then save to my hard drive, then I can upload them to facebook or where ever I want to send them. good luck. |
You did great. I never find bargains like that. Lucky you!
|
I keep reading how people get these fantastic buys at the thrift shop or a garage sale or an auction--do I live in the wrong part of the world?? I never see these buys
|
Standing ovation for you! 45 yards, that is a miracle from God.
|
Goodwill is where I got the first start on my stash...I love that place!!!
|
Wow! You did hit the jackpot! Sometimes we do & sometimes we don't......
|
That is SO awesome! Great find!
|
I love good stories! Thanks for sharing!!!
|
Wowzers! Great find!!!!
|
I love the Goodwill I always find many nice things~~ " NO" fabric. You did well, enjoy your find.
|
I went to Goodwill today and bought 2 pieces of fabric totaling about 8 yards for $4.50. Congratulations on your find. I did pretty good but you did much better.
|
I just bought the book "Scraps and Shirt-tails" and our Rescue Mission thrift store has 8 bins FULL of button down shirts for 25 cents each. You know where to find me tomorrow!!!
|
All smiles for you. Wish our goodwill had that kind of a deal.
|
Congratulations, fun to find bargains
