We went to my husband's high school reunion this weekend, I took a few minutes to head out to the thrift store. I found a few items, nothing spectacular like some people do!
Three pressed glass wines and 3 amber wines 79¢ each, 4 pressed glass sherbets 49¢ each and the largest purchase of the day, a Westmoreland milk glass pitcher $10.99.
I had been looking for yellow plates, which all of a sudden seem to be scarce; found 2 salad size for 99¢. I also scooped up the two little J&G Meakin plates in the Acantha pattern, ca. 1890, for 49¢ each. The white teapot with no markings and two gravy boats, which I will use for salad dressings were found here in town for 25¢ each.
The best purchase of the day was a Hobie International backpack purse for $3.99. It is almost in brand new condition.
A couple weeks ago there was an estate sale the next street from us and I found some pink glass...6 luncheon plates, 5 medium bowls, 1 small bowl and 6 mugs for $5.

For only finding a few things, your white pitcher is fabulous. Okay I will be on the look out for you for yellow dishes, and you be on the look out for sputnik plates. Deal? Have a great day.
I think you found some great pieces! I guess it all depends on what you are looking for to make it a "great find". I love the pressed glass. Love the backpack handbag ~ I think I have something similar in brown.
You did great on all of those dishes!!!
