It was a beautiful weekend to go out to garage and estate sales. I started compiling my e-mail blast of sales on Thursday and sent it out Thursday night for all those who opted-in. I hope you all found great bargains!
My husband had a great Father's Day partly because I found him some wonderful Jazz CD's at a neighborhood-wide garage sale. I love those sales-you just park your car and walk, or slowly drive around scanning the goods.
I picked up a great, small, air hockey table for my kids-just needs a puck-for a cool $20. Thank goodness for minivans!
My husband gave me a great book on garage sales- Garage Sale America, by Bruce Littlefield. He gives you tips on selling and shopping as well as telling you where some yearly garage sales are! It has some great photos, too. So, my fellow bargain hunters, we are not the only ones. Littlefield actually flew to a famous state-wide garage sale with $1,000 in his pocket and rented a truck to bring home his wares!
I'd also like to announce that some of my blog followers have asked me to keep on the lookout for certain things-so my personal shopping business has begun. All those on the lookout for books, furniture, sports equipment, vinyl records, old tools, Legos (yes! Legos!), let me know, and I will find them!
Have a great week :)
