Kendra emailed me a photo of her favorite Secondhand Treasure – and I can see why it’s her favorite. Kendra scored this Gucci purse at the Goodwill Glitter sale last year for just $30, it retails for $1500. Um, yeah, that’s pretty insane savings. And it’s an adorable purse to boot!
I had to look up the Goodwill Glitter Sale – it sounds like it’s an awesome opportunity to save on NICE stuff – as evident from Kendra’s amazing steal. Not sure if the dates listed online are this year or left over from last year – but it looks like it’s a November sale, so watch for it. Have you ever been to the Goodwill Glitter Sale before?
Kendra has been a loyal reader of mine for a LONG time and I just wanted to point out that she has an awesome blog over at Adventures of Brad and Kendra. And she has an Etsy shop that is Simply Darling.
Secondhand Sunday is a series I’m doing through the summer 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. Kendra will get a $10 Amazon gift card for sending in her secondhand treasure!
Have you found any great secondhand deals lately?
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 got this purse at the Bellevue Glitter Sale in April 2011; I was hoping that they would have one again this April but it looks like they rotate them around (there was one at the U-District store in March).
Happy Hunting!
