Starting a new Royal Albert collection

I've always been a fan of the Royal Albert Flower of the Month Series and have been hunting for the January (my birth month) set for years!

So I was beyond thrilled when I FINALLY found the January (Snowdrop) teacup and saucer at a local thrift store for only $7.99!
 
The matching plates (January, February, March) were also available for only $9.99!

 Then I spotted the February teacup and saucer (also only $7.99)!

 Reader, they all went home with me!
Now, I have to find the March tea set...

 The teas that I finished in October (with my co-workers' help!).

Gotta make room for all those holiday teas!

    Margie, your January teacup trio is quite the find! Can't beat the price! I have been looking for mine as well but there are few thrift shops around here now. I also don't get out much any more. You did very well to bring all of those pieces home. Lucky you! Have a wonderful week, Margie!

    What great finds! So glad you found January. Whittling down, or drinking down a stash of tea takes a lot of time. I'm still working on mine.

    Love your finds and your deals! YES...that is what I am talking bout! Oh my! I am going to be on the lookout for a February cup for me! I did look at some once but oh...way too pricey for me. Hugs and blessings, Cindy

    Beautiful finds, especially that January teacup. That is my birth month so I will need to be on the lookout for one. Our local thrift stores have great prices, but they seldom have any tea wares as nice as this.

    Margie, how wonderful! You're going to enjoy those so much, I know. Perhaps even more knowing what a bargain you got!

    This looks like such a lovely collection! I have a tiny set of the Centennial Rose set by Royal Albert. (two cups/ saucers, plate with sugar bowl and creamer)

    The flowers on your set are exquisite!
