Just like the retail stores, the thrift stores are gearing up for the holidays and putting out all their Christmas paraphernalia. I was struck today by the sheer volume of Santas on the shelves, I swear there were almost a hundred old St. Nicks staring back at me.
One even looked like he was getting goosed by one of the other elves.
I think my favorite grouping, though, must have been done by someone who'd never heard of King Arthur and Merlin the Wizard...he got shelved among the Kris Kringles...how embarrassing for such a famous wizard.
I was able to make my way through all the Santas to find a wonderful travel trunk, complete with drawers and a hanging rod on the other side and brass fittings, all for a little over $20...it was like Christmas had come early!
