Navy blue leather box purse (RP:  $2.99)
NIB Miniature resin fountains (RP:  $.49 - $1.25 each)
Bag of mini dolls (RP:  $.99)
NRFB Beauty Cuties accessory pack (RP:  $2.99)
Ferragamo - Black white strappy heels (RP:  $3.99 - $500+)

$8.94 for everything @ Salvation Army.

I actually came to check out Toy Traders - sadly, they don't carry any Monster High dolls!  That really surprised me.  Luckily, I came away with a decent haul from the Salvation Army across the street.

I really liked the purse, but it's pretty marked up.  The leather is so soft and wonderful though!  It was cheap enough, so I decided to buy it anyway.  I'll probably stud it, or something, to lessen the appearance of wear.

The miniature fountains were kind of an impulse buy.  They came from a dollar store, but they're so neat!  They've got carved cherubs and even fake water.  I definitely wouldn't have been willing to pay more than I did.

I kind of wish I didn't buy the pack of dolls.  I just bought it for the one shown doing the splits, but I don't really like her face.  It was just the novelty of having a doll that size/that body type - I've never seen one like that before!  They're normally a lot bigger and way  more childish.

I actually thought it was $1.99 at first, so I really hesitated for a while.  I'm glad it ended up being half that, that's way more reasonable!

I only bought the Beauty Cuties pack because I really like those leopard shoes.  I bought it specifically for this doll I got a while back...her feet are huge, none of my shoes fit her!  These ones ended up fitting perfectly.

Then, Ferragamo shoes for me!  I was excited to find ones in my size.  I've actually seen tons...maybe 20 in total, but they were never my size.  All of them too small except for one, which was too big (and that one was REALLY ugly).  So many pretty ones I wanted but couldn't fit into...

Anyway, this one seems really modern so I'm not sure how old it is.  I've heard of their legendary comfort, so I was a bit disappointed when I tried it on.

Sure, it was comfortable, but not the most comfortable heels I've ever wore.  Plus, they did feel like heels!  I could tell that my feet would hurt after wearing those for a while, but wayyyy less than other heels of that height.

Salvatore Ferragamo - Vara - Leather purse with bow accent:  $5.99 (RSP:  $2000!)
Mundi - lambskin wallet:  free (was $2.99)

Both @ Value Village.

I'm so excited-that purse was my best find ever!  The purse goes for around $350 in used condition! 

I knew it was a somewhat known brand name, but a lot of those only go for $20 or so used.  What a nice surprise.

It was also surprising finding a like new leather wallet for that cheap.  I liked the design and it was free anyway, so I picked it up.

I really would have liked to match it with something the same price, but I'd rather have something I wanted more.

This one also had another leather bag new with tags, but I left it behind because I wasn't too crazy about it.  It was made in Italy, but it didn't even feel like leather!

Today was totally worth the trouble!
