Oozing Goo - The Lava Lamp Syndicate

...and I say I never find anything good at thrift stores.

As of yesterday and today:

First Goodwill: 90s Silver Streak black/clear, liquid slightly yellowed, $12. (Nice to see, but I didn't buy it)

Second Goodwill: 1995 Enchantress red/yellow, no cap, $10. Wizard silver/clear glitter bottle, $3. I put that on my recently-acquired (from the same store) silver Starship base. They also had a Silver Streak base and a Silver Century base, which I left. Had the latter been complete, I would've bought it, too.

And the big deal, to me-- today, I was downtown with someone while they were running errands. Convinced them to make a moment in the schedule to stop at an odd little thrift store. They tell me they get lamps regularly there, but I've never seen one. Walk in, and right beside the door is a Silver Streak.

...with a 29 globe. Lime green/yellow. Been wanting one forever. Eight bucks. It's warming up now.

I feel very, very lucky.

Congrats, Jonas!   It appears your luck is changing for the better! 

That's awesome, Jonas.  Way to go!

Thanks. I doubt it'll continue, but this was exceptional. Last good lamp I found was a silver white/blue Century about four years ago.

Heck yes! That's awesome! I'm happy for you. :)

Thanks, Erin. The green/yellow flows well and looks lovely. I'll probably keep it on the Silver Streak base.

That's a great deal! ;) I've wanted one of those, too. 

I might hold onto it, or I may keep it for a while and trade it eventually, not sure. It may go in my lava pyramid on another base.
