Neighborhood Sales
Two of the neighborhoods near
ours had garage sales today!
Off I went---I hit three or
four sales but wasn't seeing
anything I really wanted UNTIL
I stopped at the sale where I
purchased that cute little clock
above. I got it for $5.00 AND it
works! Don't YOU think it's cute?
I'm not sure if this IS the place
the clock will live, but for now
it is resting quietly.
I also pick up this heap-big (new
word) basket $4.00 and two pillow
forms $1.00. I was glad I was
holding the basket when another
customer came up or I might have
lost it to her! Lesson to be
learned--ALWAYS pick up what you
might buy you can always put it back.
Several sales later and nothing to
show, I found this. I have always
wanted one and it was only $3.00.
It is seven in one pieces and
I don't think it had been used
because it was all still neatly
wrapped up. I went ahead and
washed everything to be on the
safe side.
So that's it! Just a bit today.
Most of the sales were to high
priced for my blood or NO PRICES
at all and I hate asking "how
much?" It is just easier when
an item has a price on it. :)
I'll show you later in a new
series called "Before and After"
what I do with the basket and
the pillow forms.
~~Happy June!

The clock is a fabulous bargain, girl friend.
ReplyDeleteGreat finds!
ReplyDeleteI too have found that if I see something that I want, I'd better snag it until I decide for certain.
Love the basket! I would have snagged that one too!

Fantastic finds! Love the basket and I am always on the lookout for pillow forms. The clock is just adorable...I have a clock fetish so I would have definitely snatched that up!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the 'Before and After' series!
Shoot! I'd have GIVEN you my slicer ... nearly lost a finger with it. Be careful. Beautiful basket.
ReplyDeleteHave a beautiful weekend ~

Great finds! I love the clock and like finding baskets so that I can give them with presents if I ever want to and don't have a bag.
ReplyDeletePlus they are great for organizing.
Dang, I wish I had time to go to rummage sales! That clock is a great find, and I've been wanting to try one of those mandolin slicers too!!
