This puzzle retails new for about $20.00-$25.00. Each picture has a “door” that opens and there are pictures underneath. Can you see the thrift shop tag on it?
$1.00 - One Dollar! It was in my cart in seconds! My 18 month old girl did play with it while I was shopping, but she won’t remember it till Christmas. If she does remember she’s not eloquent enough to ask me about it. 
Last night my Mr. Wonderful put out our garbage and brought in our neighbors. They had this cabinet out with their trash.
- It’s taller than me - which doesn’t take much. That’s a tan 4 door filing cabinet beside it.
- It can hold lots of my husband’s things - including all his camera equipment that is multiplying slowly.
- It only needed a good wipe down.
- It will replace a cabinet half it’s height and take up slightly less floor space.
- It should help make our room neater. I hope!
I think he did good!

That cabinet is great! I could really use a homeschool cabinet like that. I always read about everyone elses great finds but I can never find any myself. I guess I just need to look harder. Love the puzzle too! You can’t beat $1 for it.

Great deal on the cabinet!
Our best curbside treasure was a very large, sturdy, oak colored kitchen table. My dh turned it into his home office desk and even fashioned a hidden drawer into it.
One super hot summer day he came home from work and said before supper we need to walk over and pick up this treasure - and explained about the table.
As mentioned, it was hot and humid and I figured it would be embarrassing to be hauling a huge table betwixt the two of us with 2 kids by our sides….with sweat pouring off of us, and repeated stops to catch our breath.
I persuaded dh that maybe we could take it apart and fit it in our car (no truck or van). He agreed - though said it would not be very far to walk. Needless to say it was much further than anticipated - so glad we had brought the car and that it was easily disassembled.
