$33 gone but SO WORTH IT!!!

Tim and I keep a list of different things we want to look for at Garage Sales. Well Saturday we hit the ULTIMATE JACKPOT!!! My sister said that I am an ameture Garage Seller! I knew I would prove her wrong!!! So I went online and found all the adds for the Sales this past saturday. I had a list of 25 sales!!! Yeah that's right! ;0) There was only one that started at six a.m. and althought i didn't get my lazy bum up until 6:15 I got in my car drove to my sisters and got her bum up! We went over to the sale and it was well L.A.M.E!! BUT... It got us to the best sale EVER!!! The Neighborhood YARD SALES!!! Yeah 12 Homes with this and thats outside. And that is where it all began!!! ........................
Tim has really really wanted me to get us a coffee table and I said there is no room so we were going to make an ottoman with storage compartments for Jaericks Toys and books etc. Well we found this PERFCT ottoman. Leather on top and wood on bottom with hindges that slowly open and slowly close therefore avoiding the smashing of tiny baby fingers! and It holds all the books, toys and diapers we need it to!;0) DRUM ROLL PLEASE....
$20
Then friday we went to look for a bouncer at Target for Jaerick he LOVES them but we haven't gotten him one yet. $149.99 is what it would cost for the one I wanted to get him. Tim said um NO. :( I would just find a used one and have to settle!!!
Well GET READY FOR IT!!!.....
$5
And not only just $5 but it is the EXACT one I wanted at Target!!!
I was STOKED!!!
So then... Jaerick has started eating rice cereal consistently and we are going to start giving him baby food soon. So we thought we needed to get him a High Chair now so then he will get used to eating at the table (high chair). While at Target I also found the perfcet Chair very pretty and it would match our table. $110. Tim said NO. ( I promise he doesn't always say NO, Just most of the time)!
You probably guessed it. I found the SAME one Yard selling.
And how much?.....
$5
I know, I know, I am amazing!!!
Well not only did I get these amazing deals but I also checked off a few more things for only 3 more dollars...
- 6 hard page baby books
- 1 Shelf
- 6 Burp rags ( I only have two that tims Aunt gave us and I was using cloth diapers but I like the actual rags WAY better)
- 4 Baby Outfits
- I pair baby shoes
AWESOME RIGHT!!?!
