I went to 2 neighborhood yard sales this morning with my brother and son. We found some goodies!
These vintage Fisher Price toys were $2
Legos - 3 gallon bags and 1 sheet- $5 for all
Storage tub was $3- packed full with 3 brand new color books, some trucks, a big gator and about a dozen transformer toys
Gallon bag full of magnetic letters .50
Thomas the Train set $2
Just a few children's clothes- assorted prices from different places, I think some were 50 cents and some were $1 - I looked at lots of clothes today, too many were stained- I only bought ones that were in excellent condition
Set of Wilton tips $1
Jar was 25 cents
Makeup bag was 25 cents
Pottery Barn children's plates were $1 each - probably my worst deal of the day but I like them and I know my grandchildren will like them too. One of the grands is especially particular about their food not being mixed up.
Board books $1 each - both have those 3 D pictures in them that make it seem like the animals and vehicles in them are moving. They were both like new- makes me wonder why the first owners never read them.
Pampered Chef mixing pitcher 25 cents! I was wanting one of these as I am following the Trim Healthy Mama plan and wanted one to mix up big batches of GGMS.
Little Tikes basketball goal - 25 cents! I was looking for one of these too and never imagined I would find a good one for such a tiny price.
My brothers pile - books, rugs, photo frames, and a CD.
My sons pile - pretty clear drinking glasses, a book, a t shirt, a leather document bag
My son got the large tray for $1
Carhart overalls for $1 - my husband said new ones retail for $90 or so. They are in very good condition, just need laundered.
We saw lots of other good deals today that we didn't buy as we didn't need them.
I've been accumulating a discard pile and had been considering having a sale on our neighborhood-wide day. But today's prices convinced me that I don't want too. Yard sales are a lot of work for not much profit, at least that it how it seems in our town,
So I am pretty sure I will be donating our pile to our favorite thrift store.
CVS deals - just one trip this week
With coupons and $10 extra care bucks, all this was $10.30.
Thank you all so much for the sweet comments about our latest grandson. He is doing just fine and is just as sweet as he looks.
I've accomplished several jobs around my home that make life easier and me happier.
I hope to be back blogging on a regular basis soon.
