I thought I would change it up a little and actually talk about what I bought last Saturday at the yardsales. It was a great Saturday weatherwise and I found some great stuff dirt cheap.
The new in package Leatherman tool thingy was $1 (will be an Xmas gift for DH), sewing box was .25 (mostly junk inside, except for a pair of Fiskar scissors which I will keep), Santa decoration was .50, cookbooks .25 each. New Celine Dion perfume was $1. New griddle thing $2. Easy Spirit sandals .50, new Disney 2 DVD set $5, Volkswagen book $5, Avon shower gel .25, beer sign $1, small crystal bowl- free.
The Little Tikes computer mice were $1 each, but now I find out they were recalled because - duh - if you unscrew the little thingy that holds the mouse ball inside, the mouseball becomes a choking hazard. I can return a piece of each to Little Tikes and get two $10 Little Tikes coupons.
I'm Chris and I am addicted to yard sales, garage sales, thrift stores and bargain hunting in general. Visit my site yardsalequeen.com - which I started in 1996. "Smile" and "VV" (Vintage Value) are the names of two thrift stores I regularly shop at. I grew up in Clifton Park NY but now live in Lusby, MD. I also lived in other exciting locales such as Schenectady, Watervliet (NY), and Charleston, SC.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteThe recall find is great. We generally tell our members to be cautious when purchasing kids items, but you turned it into a great opportunity. We love your posts, keep it up.
