My best EVER thrift store find was an adorable little evening purse, in black leather...hard to describe the style, but it looked almost like a miniateur doctor's bag, only dressier...
It cost about 5 euros, I think.
BUT unfortunately it was stolen on a night out
My keys, wallet, creditcard and cell was in there, but the thing I cried about when I got home was the purse
I still have my eyes open for it when I go out, I swear if I see someone carrying it...
Handbags and purses is what I find most of in thrift stores, and jackets and coats.
