My Sister the Thrifting Queen

By Lauren Smith @AlbatrossTales

My sister Megan is the Queen of Goodwill. That’s a fact.

Abba even did a song about her:

Ooooo she’s a Thrifting Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen*,

Thrifting Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine (oh yeaaaaahhhh)

You can shop, you can buy, having the time of your life, (oooooo ooooo oooo)

See that girl, watch that scene, digging the Thrifting Queen.” **

 
*The song was written a few years ago, she’s not 17 anymore. 
** These might not be exactly the lyrics to the song. But they should be. 

And now hopefully you have that extremely catchy tune stuck in your head. You’re welcome.

Lauren and Megan, back in the day. In addition to sharing genetic material, we share smiles and a taste for Minnie Mouse apparel. 

She took part in the Something to be Found blog’s  March Reader Thrift Challenge. Check out her entry, and then vote for your favorite! (Which is #4, Megan. Obviously.)

Here are a couple pictures of her entry:

Here it is! Her masterpiece! A 3-tiered stand, with a wedding theme. All thrifted. And that’s our backyard! Yay!

Another view, this time in the front yard. Still looks sweet. The tray, not the yard. Though the yard is nice too.

Vote for Megan!

Cause she’s awesome and finds cool junk at Goodwill and makes it look pretty!

Which does indeed take some skill, let me tell you.

Meg, you rock!
