Yeeeehaaaaawwwww Bargains!
I went to a couple of garage sales yesterday and was thrilled with my finds.
I got a nice desk chair $5... I'd been using a wood rocker! LOL I got 100 feet of wire netting like we used on the dog pens plus 13, 8 foot wooden fence posts, and a really cool ornate old gate that dh is going to turn into a trellis for me next spring. $20 for the lot and they delivered it all to my house! Dh got 2 sets of Pioneer speakers (still in the boxes) for the car he's restoring $10per set 2 big heavy wood bar stools with backrests that he plans to use in his workshop when he's working at the bench $10 for the pair 2 bundles of r-13 insulation still in the packages $4 mans 10 speed racing bike $10! New mans Waltham wrist watch still in the box for $3 and a paper grocery bag full of hardcover books for $6 OH I love a bargain! And to find so many in a day was just TOO sweet! Greg doesn't usually like garage sales much, but he was glad he'd gone with me!

It does sound like you really hit the jackpot!!!! I love going to garage sales and finding stuff that I can really use. Most of my home is decorated with garage sale finds, flea market finds, and e-Bay finds! I love it!

I agree Tink. There's nothing like finding a good bargain!
 Sounds like you got some great deals. Way to go!
