You’re Under Arrest!

I must introduce you to a place where you’ll feel positively criminal walking away with some of your unbelievable bargain finds! This is all part of the thrill for us LIFER thrifters! 
Using an illustration on the other side of the law! 
We thrifters are kind of like a detective on a case! We enter the scene of the inevitable incident, searching every nook and cranny. Our magnifying glasses are kept handy, ready to examine each clue of our WANTED finds. 
We ask the questions, who, what, when, where and how. What is its age (year, era)? Where’d it come from (state, country)? Who made it (company, artist, author, etc)? When will I see another one (rare, unique)? How much is it (bargain)? If our find has satisfied all of our queries. All at once, we again become stealthy and make like a bandit for a quick getaway with our elusive treasure! 
On more than one occasion at Junk & Disorderly, I’ve paid such scant amounts for my goods that I’ve made for a very quick exit, as if evading arrest! I jump into our escape truck, waving my pickings about and proudly exclaiming to my husband, “It’s a steal! Let’s go!” 
Well, in reality, he’s been waiting outside for me for such a long time that he’s actually the one saying, “let’s go!” 
Don’t miss out on an opportunity to visit this one of a kind prison themed shop! You’ll find, great vendors, fantastic selections, excellent prices and awesome owners!

Keep your eyes peeled for the fun prison theme that runs throughout the entire shop!

A couple of my great finds from Junk & Disorderly;

Hand painted Strawberry watering can $10.00

Vintage fruity tea towel $3.00

Meet Scooter, the Trustee and share a selfie.

It’s absolutely free but watch out he’s frisky! 😊

      Hi Sally! I really think you’d love it! Come see me and we can definitely go there and check it out! Plus Ricochet (in previous post “Rescued Wonders”) Goodwill and various other antique/thrift stores are all on the same road as this one.
      Thank you for reading my blog!
      Lots of love, Kimberley

    Loved it! I would’ve loved having someone blog about my store, when I opened my dream. The Social Butterfly, Antiques and Flea Market! It does a business good! Wonderful and funny story, and exactly what we LIFERS do! Shop for exactly what we collect, and sometimes fall in love and start new collections. Happy to know you well enough…you’re definitely not a thief! RUN!! LOL
    Love always, Momma
