The Deal this Week

So of course it is Saturday and the deal for the day was this kid carrier backpack! I got this for 20 bucks! We are going on family vacation this summer to bear Lake and we are planning on doing some hiking and walking. This will be so nice! For our Y hike we used Kristi's and it was a Lifesaver- we kind of need two, but one will be fine now. So I looked online to see if I did good or not, and they are about 100-200 dollars brand new! So I think that I did good!

One of my great finds!

So on Saturday we went out to some more garage sales. It was a great day- I found tons of clothes for the kids, frames, presents, and home decor.

But the best find was just here in our city. There was all this American stuff and I really liked the big flag sign and the sign that said stars and strips forever. So I asked the lady how much the signs for and she said 5 dollars and 7 dollars. Then Kristi said well how much is all of it, and I was thinking in my mind I will only pay 50 dollars. But she said 15 dollars- so of course I had to get it. Then we asked how much the shelves were and she said 5 dollars. So everything that is in my living room and entry I got for 20 dollars. When we got home the one big flag sign still had the tag on it and it was 15 dollars when she bought it! Well, i wasn't sure if I would like it. But we got half of it up with my mom and I and then Dave and I finished today. And it is growing on me and I am loving it more and more! Now the living room has some style- before it just had a picture from our honeymoon!

The Best....

Some of my good finds!
Can I say that Garage Sales can be the best! Today I found Jonathan's Santa Present, I love it and think that it is so cute and he will have fun. Now you are wondering what it is- you will just have to wait for Christmas like Jonathan does! But really, you can get some really good stuff if you are willing to look. I got this hand blender that hasn't even been used for 1 dollar- yes a buck. I do come home and think why did I buy that, in the moment you do sometimes buy things you may not need- but for the most part I try to be grounded. But I do love garage sale seasons!
