While I haven't bought used foil, I always go to the backyard and garage in search of terracotta or stone planters. I love when there's still something growing in the pot. I don't have a green thumb but I've kept se beautiful ivy alive in its Italian terracotta pot and think about the person who planted it and watered it before me.

My heart skips a beat when I see a handwritten estate sale sign. I feel like I get better deals when things are family run.

Oh, what an array of lovely and unusual things you have found, Virginia! I need to see if there’s an app like that for Canada.
