I'm beginning to think I have a serious addiction. First it was dishes and now it's buttons. I went to the thrift store on my lunch hour yesterday. I was just about to walk out empty-handed when I looked at the area with hanging bags of sewing notions. Usually there isn't much of anything there...old cheap lace (not the good stuff), cheap, ugly ribbon, etc. I squealed out loud when I saw a bag of old buttons, and then I found another, and another. Four little bags of old buttons for 69 cents each! I was happy!

Oh my now what would one do with so many buttons!Happy Easter :)NG
I just love a great deal. There's nothing better.
Wow ! What a find - buttons make you collect them !!Don't they ?
You lucky dog. I really do think it's too much though. Would you like my address so that I can take some of those off your hands? I'd hate to have people talking about you!
I think you made a BIG score. Those are beautiful and I can't believe the price.

I won't tell you what I paid on eBay for a similar bag of buttons. Let me just say....I'm jealous! What a find! I love buttons - they look great just in a dish like you've displayed them or you can use them in so many crafty ways.
Good Deal!

How wonderful! I've never found any good buttons in the thrift or antique shops. xoxo
What a find! I wish I'd be so lucky in my thrifting adventures, but alas, so far I haven't been!
Wow! What a deal!
Yesterday I had in my hand a bag of buttons at Goodwill... same size bag and it was marked $2.99! Their prices have gotten ridiculous! I didn't buy them.
But I do call the Goodwill headquarters often and complain about their prices.
Just found your blog today. Love the buttons, perfect colors and such a score! I'll be back for more visits. Happy Easter
What a great find! You definately don't live in my area...around here the thrift stores are getting really expensive!
I love the buttons, just having them in a bowl, they are so gorgeous aren't they?
I'm with Jen..(lol)..
Happy Easter Cindy! Looks like the Bunny already brought the goodies to you, buttons! At that price how could you pass them by?
Donna
What a great find...I collect buttons too....They are beautiful.... Congrats on your beautiful blog
You too?!! I can't pass up buttons, especially white / cream / ivory ones. Great deal!
Used stores around here would have at the least $2.98 on each of those bags. I sure am glad stores other places have fairer prices. Great buy! :) Sarah
