Here's What Was in the Box of Freecycle Glasses...

If you recall, about a month ago I mentioned we snagged a box of "bar glasses" off of Freecycle, but we hadn't unpacked them to see what they were, but I promised when I got around to it, I would show you.  (In case you don't know about Freecycle, it's a website message board where people can post items they want to get rid of.  Everything that's posted must be free.  I believe each county has it's own Freecycle website - try searching for your county and "Freecycle" and you'll probably find yours.  You can get some really amazingly good stuff, but you have to be quick.  I swear it seems like there must be people who do nothing but wait by the computer for the next batch of postings.  Anyway, you might remember I got a big tv for my daughter off Freecycle last fall.  There was a pool table up for grabs yesterday!)  Anyway, to refresh your memory, here's the box I went and picked up:

 
  
And here is what was inside:
  
 
Kinda tough to see in the photo, but there were a lot of really cool glasses!  We'll keep a few here, the rest are being packed up for the "cabin".  Here are a few of the glasses I thought were cool:

 
   
 
We laughed when we unwrapped these (photo below) - we HAVE these same glasses!  Not only that, we hate them!  Heh!

    

It was not easy trying to get decent photos of these glasses, but there you can see this one has polka dots, which I thought was fun.

This next one is my second favorite glass from the box.  It looks like the Princess House pattern, but it might just be a cheap knock off.  Who cares, I like it.


Ok, here's my favorite glass from the box:
  
 
  
Ok, just kidding.  But I hope you had happy lives Sigmund and Evelyn! :-P
  
The end.

  5. Oh wow! I mostly give things away but I love freecycle for that. I just want it gone quick, so I'm always glad when we can make the drop off right away. I have gotten some neat things on there too. I love it!

I read each and every comment, and though I don't always get a chance to respond, I enjoy reading (and pondering) what you have to say. Thanks for your 2 cents! :-)
