Thrift store find: $5.99 for barstools

I love thrift store shopping. I recently found these Ashley furniture bar stools for $5.99! In the spring, I'm going to repaint them white and add some stress to them. 

I already re-covered them. (Actually, my big sister did it for me because she is really good, but I sat there and supported her!)

In all, I spent nearly $19 on the stools and about $14 on the fabric. The fabric was on sale at Joann for $4.99 a yard and I bought 2.5 yards. I could have done it with 2 yards.

Anyway, I have been searching for bar stools for my basement for some time... and the ones on Craigslist have been well over $100.  I mean, you can't beat $6! That's cheaper than a latte! I don't know about you, but I feel so guilty buying some things new.  I like to reuse, reduce and recycle!  (Or upcycle in this case!)

I'd love to hear your thrift store adventures!
