One of the Highlights of My Year

Tomorrow is one of the highlights of my thrifting year - the local Grand Christmas Bazaar - held at the same church where they have the weekly 'Coffee and Jumble.'  It's a two-day event but I only ever go on the Friday as I think the best stuff is already snapped up then (too lazy to get out of bed early on a Saturday is more the truth of the matter.) 

Anyway, this grand event is a bit late in the calendar this year - it's usually held in mid-November - and apparently there was some debate as to whether they'd bother holding it at all.  They do put in an enormous effort and the event is very well attended but as most of the helpers are pretty elderly they find it an awful lot of work. I'm not really surprised as it is very well laid out and there must be a heck of a lot of lifting and shifting of things involved.

So I've got a purse-full of small change at the ready, my shopping trolley has been fetched in from the shed and I'm fair raring to go.  I've had some great finds there in the past (blogged about here and here) and I'm keeping my paws crossed for more good stuff tomorrow.
