My personal finds include:
Some delightful handpainted eggs, 50c each, and a white belt for Mum
so delicate and pretty!And some music paper for another upcycled coaster craft project.
Some other treasures of the day which I didn't buy, but thought were cute:
A handpainted pet doggy picture - how did this little poppet end up in the op shop?
What a classic! Not the song, but the 80s roller disco outfit!!
A collection of dolls from around the world..?! 
A gorgeous wooden high chairRemember my blog post discussing the popularity of Havaianas?..
A whole bunch of childrens Havaianas sitting in Salvos Nunawading, all brand new in the box, size 29/30.. wow!And some treats purchased by the group:
A collection of pretty scarves and a lovely pair of shoes 
A retro floral dress
A vintage jigsaw castle and ruby red shoes I shall be leading the next Melbourne Op Shop Tours Bayside Route on Sunday 5th February.

those eggs!
Steph - I am not sure I will be back there soon, but if I do, I will get some for Bubble! They are quite big though - for kids I mean, so they might fit a 8/9 year old?
woolf - I know, I adore the eggs!!
marian - the shoes are so lovely arent they
George - tours started in 2009 so maybe that is why you hadn't heard of them :)
Sounds like heaps of fun! Would love to join in one day - course I will have to get my butt to Melbourne first ....
Awww Erica!! You are so wonderful!! They are prob too big for Bubble she's is only 2 hehe. There is an op shop tour up here in Gosford but I already know all the great op shops so really I should start my own tour group!! Hehehe

tour! Gasp - what a great idea! Next time in Melbourne!
as a gypsy, I never really know if I have found the best opshops in the city in live in. I need you here in Perth!
LOVE LOVE LOVE those ruby shoes.
Do you know if there's anyone doing tours in Brisbane? We're there over Easter, (v excited) if you fancied popping up for a visit.
No tours in Brisbane at the moment, but maybe in the future.
