My Daughter asked me to give her a lift to a local coffee shop this morning. The parking spots on the street were full, but there was a parking lot at the thrift store across the street. While she went to get a sandwich and a cup of Joe I decided to check out the thrift store to see if they had anything made of pewter. Score! I picked up this pair of candle stick holders. Normally $16 for the set, they were offering a 20% seniors discount because it was Tuesday. Got both of them for $13. Weighed them when I got home and it comes out to just about $3 a pound for 4.5 pounds of pewter. And, extra lucky, unlike things that are too cool to melt down like beer steins and fancy stuff, these are butt ugly so no guilt involved.
