    I was at Deseret Industries, Local Thrift Store, yesterday, and I found a real safety pin type kilt pin. I purchased it for $0.50!

    I love thrift storing, my wife thinks I am crazy but I find the most unusual stuff there. My two best finds are a tartan scarf that on the label says 100% cashmere and made in Scotland. The other was a metal Bushmills sign that now hangs on my back patio. Both items were marked $.99.

    Aren't thrift stores great!?! And I have to admit, the safety-pin style is my favorite. They never fall off, go with anything (and any occasion), and are simple and classic.
