Today was a FUN garage sale day! I got SO many awesome deals! Though I did go to a few that were, um, RI-FRICKIN-DICULOUS! Honestly how can you possibly throw a sale and charge almost FULL price for used items. I saw the cutest little summer dress for my daughter that I would have paid maybe $2 for. It was Walmart brand but adorable. This woman was charging $6! I can go to Walmart and buy it for that much.
Also, if you advertise HUGE sale....make it a HUGE sale. Not one or 2 little tables with CRAP on them. People waste precious gas $$ to come to your sale to be greatly disappointed and pissed off!
I am always looking for clothes for the kids. My boys destroy their pants at school and if I can get away with getting them cheap then that's what they get. Same for baby clothes. She is 5 months old and wears 9 month clothes already.
My take for today:
- 4 brand new coffee mugs $1 (don't ask me how many I break!!!)
- wooden play shotgun for my 7 year old $1 ( he wants to be an army guy)
- Levi jeans in almost new condition for my oldest 50 cents
-2 old navy hats for the baby who has VERY little hair 50 cents
- 2 gorgeous picture frames $1 each
- MANY books ( I sell on Ebay) for $1.50 total
- Brand new Xmas items to use for hostess + teacher gifts at Holiday time $1.25
- Pink and white throw rug for the baby's room 25 cents! ( my bloodhound ate the other one)
Not too shabby! And I had fun with my kids. They are getting to be quite the little bargain hunters too. The boys like to pick out books for me to sell on Ebay.
I am pooped....gonna try to take a snooze while my little girl is sleeping and the boys are out fishing with their Papa.
