I got an email from Brooke earlier this week about this AMAZING deal she found at her local Goodwill. I’m so jealous – this deal is amazing!
Brooke found four Le Creuset pieces – at $2.99 each! These easily retail for $25 (8 oz ramekins) and $30 each (rectangle dishes).
She also found a Scentsy bird warmer for $3.99 – one that she’d been eyeing for awhile. It normally retails for $25.
That’s a total savings of about $120!
Secondhand Sunday is a series to feature deals that readers are finding secondhand – either at a thrift shop, garage sale or on Craigslist. It’s to encourage us all to consider secondhand purchases when we try to save money. Brooke will get a $10 Amazon gift card for sending in her secondhand treasure!
Here are some of the secondhand treasures we’ve featured:
- Women’s Hunter boots $24.99, retails for $150!
- Bob Duallie Stroller $20 at consignment sale, retails for $450
- Gucci purse just $14.99, retails for $1,000
- Keurig coffee machine, only $1 at garage sale, received a new one from Keurig (reg. $180)
- Bought old violin for $5, resold for $125!
- Chicco Double Stroller $40, valued at $299
- A FREE Baby Grand Piano valued at $1,000
- Beth saves 97% off a KitchenAid Professional Mixer
- Seneca saves 99% off a Harveys Seatbelt Designer Purse
- Kristyle saved more than $160 off a Bissell Spotbot
Send in your secondhand treasures and if I feature your score here on the blog, you’ll get a $10 Amazon gift card!
- I’ll be featuring one secondhand score each Sunday
- If I feature your thrift-store or garage sale treasure here on the blog you’ll get a $10 Amazon gift card!
- Please email me a photo at thehive@queenbeetoday.com – include in the email a short description of what you found secondhand, what you paid for it and what you think it retails for. Use subject line Secondhand Treasure when you send the email.
- Try to take a photo that is not blurry and is in good light (try natural light, no flash, if possible). The better your photo the more likely it will be to make it on the site. People want to see what you got!
- If you bought something secondhand and restored it or improved it somehow – I’d love before and after photos!
I’d love to hear – what sort of secondhand deals have you scored lately?

I have the Le Creuset Red Cast Iron Heart shaped 3 qt dutch oven to match hers. I made chili in it for dh, heart shaped donuts, and a hearty shaped pizza, as well as heart shaped sugar cookies with cinnamon oil butter frosting on them this weekend.
