    Aren't thrift stores the best! I love the hunt and the thrill of victory when I find a treasure.

    Sometimes I hit it just right with our thrift stores, but when I don't and I'm looking for something specific, I always make 'friends' with the owners and let them know what I'm in the market for. Ask them nicely if something does comes in that is on your wish list, that they might phone you. Bring in some chocolates or cookies just to help them remember you - it has worked for me in the past!!
    No, I'm not BRIBING them!! LOL!

    A very nice find and price too! I am wondering if you have the top bolted down with all the things stored in it. I would hate to see it topple over! :) I worry of those things;)

    My daughter has a computer desk just like yours. I will have to show her a better use for it! Love the way you have organized it.
