My Amazing Score!
I can’t believe it…I actually have two matching chairs for my living room! I know you are asking yourself, what is the big deal? It actually is for me. I’ve wanted a matching set of chairs for my living room for years but they just were not in the budget. I’m also picky and had an idea of what I wanted (ahem, Pottery Barn). Yes, champagne taste on a beer budget!
You can imagine my delight when I walked into a local thrift store and saw this pair. They are brand, spanking new. They are clean as a whistle and slipcovered (perfect for the dogs) in a neutral color. They look like Pottery Barn and are exactly what I’ve wanted for years. Best of all? I got them for $50 each! Oh, yeah baby. $100 for the pair! I’ve attached a pic of the price in case you don’t believe me! They were discounted even more from the ticket price. Incredible. Christmas came early to Suz!
I’ve attached a TON of pics to share as I am giddy with my score. I’ve also attached a few of the adjoining dining room all decked out for Christmas. Here goes!

I’ll have a simple craft to share tomorrow!

Great job!!!! I love finding a good deal too. Your house looks beautiful decorated of Christmas. Congrats
Thank you, Shari! Love a good deal
What a find!! Congratulations! If I’d been there Id’ve arm wrestled you for them.
Your house is looking great.
Thank you, Mary! I think I would have won that fight lol! I wanted those so much I actually drove the first one home, unloaded it by myself and drove straight back for the second. Still not sure how I managed to get it out of my car lol!
Love them. What a great find. Congratulations.
Thanks, Gail! They do rank up there as one of my all-time best buys!
Wow! The thrift store Gods were looking after you!! Great score!

Oh my gosh! I love, love, love them! They are exactly what I want for my living room too. How lucky you were to find them! I want to shop your thrift store!
Hi Pam! Believe me, this was not a typical thrift store find! Just really my lucky day
Thanks!
Perfect…..what a steal! I need some just like them. You are blessed! Enjoy!
Hi Mary, Yes, they were quite a steal! I’m telling you, Christmas came early
Suzanne, your house looks ggrrreat! Your chairs are nothing short of miraculous! They’re also a nice return on the investment you’ve made of years of trolling thrift stores for paintable furniture—casual shoppers, take a seat! Still, incredible find, and no wonder you’re giddy! Congratulations!
Thanks so much, Louise! They are quite miraculous and yes, a great return on my investment of time spent scouring thrift stores near and far! Hope you have a great score of your own soon!
