sorry I can't get the pictures to show up. :( My internet connection has been spotty.
Here's some of my finds at the area garage sales from the past two days. How did I manage to get any shopping done while watching the kids and running my own sale? One word: Help.
Help from Wendy (Brianna's mom), who covered the sale for a bit this morning while I power shopped, help from Sharon (SIL), and help from my middle sister, Katie. THANK YOU ladies!!!
I remember last year someone requesting a photo of things I bought so here are a few. Isaac and Maisie can you spot the items I found for each of you?
Step2 toy high chair - $1
5 Gap sweaters - 50 cents each
Four dollar Gap wool coat for Julia
8 pair of pants for Sam - 1 dollar each
crocs - $2
jogging stroller - $13 looks brand new
2 Minnesota Twins jerseys - 50 cents
gymboree tights - $1
4 pair of shorts - 25 cents each
leather footstool - $20
dryer - $30
Gymboree pj's - 50 cents
large area rug - $15
white bead-board toy box - $15
I splurged a bit on this vintage Tonka Crane, but Sam played with it all day and this type of toy increases in value. He only stopped because I pulled out a bag of new track pieces ($3) The excavator Brian is playing with is pretty cool too. When Sam is busy with the crane, Julia gets a chance to pull the levers on the backhoe.
Julia jumped at the chance to try on some of her new clothes. (50 cent shirt, 50 cent skort, $2 crocs) I still can't believe that the outfit in the final picture is a 4T - it's almost too small!)

I don't see any pictures! But it sure SOUNDS like you got some great deals!
ReplyDeleteI'll come back and check to see if the pics are up later
I want to see the pics too! I tried a few sales today, and found a pile of T-shirts for Justin's ever growing torso, but not much else.. So I need to live vicariously through you!!
ReplyDeleteYou're pictures aren't showing up... I checked a while ago and they weren't so I came back and they are still down. I have 1 post that isn't showing up. Blogger gets a little buggie sometimes.
ReplyDeleteWish I could gone with you... I LOVE garage sales and it looks like you found lots of great finds.
