I Brake for Garage Sales

My new motto when garage saling is that "you never know what you are going to find". It is worth it to look around at all of them. For instance, today my sister and I went to a few off-beaten paths to garage sales that seemed very meager but we decided that you just never know what you'll find.

We love looking at the local Military post garage sales so at ours they would be found at Carson Yard Sales. Today, though we just perused the Craiglist-ings.

So, at the first garage sale I found a totally cute dress for my Bella {age 4} but most exciting was the Lava mortar and pestle. $43 new at the Chef Kitchen store and I found mine at a garage sale off the beaten path for $5. :) WOOT!



So, the next one I was excited to find a bunch of baby toys and clothes for little Bubby man. They were in like-new shape and the clothes were 6 for a $1! Score! I'm always scouting out for toys, especially VTECH or toys that make noise. I also like to find new rattles. We have three main levels to our house and I'm filling up the baskets of toys for the bubby: one for each level.



I also got a totally cute diaper bag/purse, 2 new shirts for Cailynn, a like-new hardbound copy of James Allen "As a Man Thinketh", a throw rug, and a totally cute coat for Bella.

I need a sign on my truck that says, "Warning: I brake for garage sales!"
