kellee Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 The other day I left work and went to the thrift store for jeans... could not fit my jeans on overtop my Long johns so I had to get a few pairs... While looking around..... I found a dollhouse box, I was so happy!!! Ran over to find it was just bits & Pieces nothing any good.... but asked the manager about it... it was marked 24.00 she marked it down to 10.10!! Well, I left without the house because there was nothing there to build a house with.!! SO disappointed.!! Today, we went to the same thrift store to pick up a metal bowl for our puppys dog food.!! and low and behold there sat that dollhouse... I showed Hubby.. and said This is the one with only a few pieces, he turned around and there sat 2 more boxes.!!!!!!! so I got all 3 boxes for $10.10 and it is the .................... DURACRAFT FARMHOUSE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOO HOO!!!!! I finaly found a dollhouse at a thrift store.!!!

Sherry Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 I'm jealous! My dream is to find a bargain dollhouse somewhere like a garage sale or thrift store. I think it would be so exciting, as I love bargains! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lynette Smith Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 My DC Farmhouse was a $10 thrift store find. It was missing instructions, but quickly got a set! I need to build it for my niece, once I can organize some room to work. Congratulations on the find! Is it just the one house? B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellee Posted December 14, 2009 Author Share Posted December 14, 2009 Lynette, I am not sure what all was in the boxes... I know there area ton of shingles, and a bunch of wood pieces that are the walls and etc. but I never really looked at it all yet... Just dont have the time.!! I will let you all know as soon as I get a minute to go and look.! Kellee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
