Nifty Thrifty Tuesday No.88 and a GIVEAWAY

Whew...it's already time for another NIFTY THRIFTY TUESDAY party...this weekly party seems to be getting closer and closer together just lately...maybe it feels that way to me beacuse I have been so super busy getting everything ready to open my new business on Friday. Who needs sleep...right? Well I do need just a tad at my old age. For all of you (all 534 of y'all) that came by for a visit at my post about my vintage wire basket that I filled with THRIFTY fall goodies, I promised that I would share with y'all today at the party how much these goodies cost me and I'm a gal that keeps her promises...so here we go! Now before we check out my super duper deals, let's first see what's up for grabs this week at the GIVEAWAY that I have going on. Shanti at SUNSHINE BLISS has donated this charming COASTAL NECKLACE to be given away...what to know a wee bit about it? Here is what she has to say about it! It's called Dreaming of the Sea.
24 inch Dreamy Sari Silk & Hues of Blue Silky Ribbon Necklace Showcases a gorgeous antique gold plated Starfish which floats blissfully on the necklace while six cultured blue pearls dance beneath & a pretty antique gold plated charm that reads dreaming of the sea dangles sweetly!
So no matter where you are this sweet necklace will remind you of your most fav day spent at the Beach!
