2 griddle pans were purchased for just £2 each which I was thrilled with.
Both are cast iron so quite a weight and when I turned them over I discovered the green one was Le Creuset, a real bargain and just in need of a good clean.
A handmade stamp was purchased for 50p, ideal for cards.
I also managed to get some more handmade buttons for 30p per card to add to some of my creations.
I am always on the look out for the children and like to add to the nursery shelf so this week we got lucky with 2 Peppa Pig games in perfect condition and with all the parts.
Both were 50p each so a real bargain and something different for us all to play. Despite all the extra vendors and what seemed like thousands of books I could not find any that appealed, so that is something still on the list along with jigsaws for us all.
Did you have any luck this week finding a treasure amongst the junk? I am a great fan of the Antiques Roadshow programme and love it when a treasure is found for pennies at a car boot sale or charity shop and is worth hundreds. It really does make my day, somebodies rubbish is somebody else's treasure. Good hunting.
See you soon.
Looks like you made some good purchase at bargain price. I am also using cast iron pans. And they are heavy! Love the children's game and the ones you bought are still in good condition.
ReplyDeleteI do love a good car boot sale and the treasures that it unfolds as you go around the different stalls. Those griddle pans are a real bargain!! You look prepared with the logs and coal! Cozy nights ahead :-)
ReplyDeleteThose pans are a great find aren't they! They are so expensive to buy new, you did very well there!!! xx
ReplyDeleteWell done! Those Le Creuset cast iron pans cost a fortune to buy!
ReplyDeleteI like the pans. I use cast iron pans for cooking most of the time, but mine are not as pretty as those you found. I am always hoping to find that special treasure that will make me rich. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat finds! It is always good when you find games in good condition.
ReplyDeletei love that show to , wish i had a treasure that was worth a lot of money
ReplyDeleteVery nice finds. I love those griddle pans and the games look like fun. We would call the same game Chutes and Ladders here and we've gotten a lot of mileage out of it because it takes my kids years to totally understand the rules. :)
ReplyDeleteGood job on the Le Creuset pan! I have a few and love them. My best finds were some vintage oak splint baskets in the Ozarks. Have fun! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
ReplyDeleteCheers for your good purchases! I like Antiques Roadshow, too. My oldest daughter was given a box of old treasures recently, and can not put them to good use so is trying to figure out how much to price the items to sell. My last bargain I purchased is a cobalt blue glass candlestick I bought for ten dollars...pretty and perhaps practical,
ReplyDeletetoo :)
You were very lucky to find a Creuset griddle pan! I can never quite organised to get out of the house in time to find a bargain at a car boot sale... x
ReplyDeleteThat looks like good fun. It's so true that someone's rubbish is another person's treasure. No treasures here this weekend apart from some quiet time!
ReplyDeleteThose saute pans should do quite nicely. I love when a bargain can be had on something useful!
ReplyDeletenice pans! my dad would love something like that. I love that you find such nifty stuff. Not so around here but then when I do find something nice it makes it extra special then.
ReplyDeleteJust free veggies this week and saving $17 on groceries with good deals and coupons to match! !
ReplyDeleteExcellent bargains.
