Lately I have been finding so many great things at garage sales. Today I got my three year old son a Buzz Lightyear costume. He is obsessed with "Toy Story" and the characters so he was beyond thrilled to get this. I also got three bags full of baby clothes for Joseph for just $30, and these are great brands such as Gap, Old Navy, and Carters. I get so tired of going to garage sales where the clothes are yucky or high priced, or both! I found a few pjs for my daughter today as well.
A few weeks ago I went to a sale in the rich part of town that was just to die for - nice, nice things priced so cheap! I spent $50, which is the most I ever spent at a sale but I sold the Proactiv face wash that I bought there for $59 on Ebay (I spent $13 for it at the sale) and sold a K'Nex set for $30 (that I payed $1 for). I got a double jogging stroller, a Little Tykes kids Coupe riding car, tons of brand new looking Disney VHS tapes for 10 cents, snowpants and boots for my daughter, a brand new Baby Gap outfit for Joseph, purses for myself, Melissa & Doug wooden toys, and much more. Don't you just love garage sales?!!! My kids are well dressed on such a small little budget!

I'm jealous, it's my dream to find a cozy coup at a yard sale! I did better than I ever had two weks ago, then for the last two weeks, all I found was junk. But I keep looking.

I love garage sales and thrift stores for finding the most interesting things for so little money.I think half of the stuff in my house came from that kind of shopping.

I just wish I could find stuff for myself at garage sales. It seems like there is rarely adult clothes for sale, and when there is I usually have a hard time looking through it all while holding a baby. If only I was dressed as well as my kids! lol
