Here they are!

The Blues Brothers.
They may not look like much now, but you just wait!
How do you like? I don't just like these, I love them. They have so much potential. I can't wait to get going on these two beauties. I paid $30 for the two, and if you know me, you know that is a lot for me to spend on a D.I. find. I'm starting to realize that I wont be able to get all my things for .99 cents. I am so glad I got them when I did, because when Jon went to pick them up this evening he found out that the desk had been sold twice! I guess another lady came in and bought it again today, luckily she didn't have a way to get it home. If she had, I wouldn't have gotten it and I would have been ticked! To stay updated on these, visit this blog. Happy thrift shopping everyone!

**Special thanks to Mr. Scott Cole for providing the use of his truck and muscles to help us get these home. You and your darling family have some of these coming your way!**
