Tag Sale adventures 6-18-11

Today we decided to just hit a few sales on our way to do some errands before going to see the family at Fil's.
Today's haul:




At the first sale I got Beloved 2 like new pairs of pants, 2 tiny blue bottles (I collect blue glass) and 2 Large body pillows (I have a plan for these I will share later)

The next sale I scored!
5 sewing patterns
6 large pieces of fabric and
a sewing mat, the kind quilters love. The price tag on the mat said $50.00. It was marked at $10.00 but the girl pulling it out said $2.00! The lady holding the sale said yes take it! This mat has never been used! it takes up 1/3 of my 8 seat dining table!
The mat:


The next sale I found
The Case for a creator
A box of laces and trims
several lacy collars
a Wicker sewing basket
and a large target bag full of facing!
All I had on me was $5 and the lady said take it all!

The basket is too sweet:

The next sale we happened on and Beloved found for me
Season one of LHOP and a dvd that had 3 horse/pioneer movies on it.

Next we happened on a sale where I got some sort of mystery word game...


The last sale I scored again, a 5 book set of Zondervan Bible study helps books. I think you can see the titles in the pictures:

Total spent by both of us today? $25 (MJ found some computer things he collects)

All in all a very productive day.
We got my truck inspected, and got it a free car wash! We were going to celebrate because last night we paid it off. So once it passed inspection we decided to treat it to a $5 wash. We pulled into Stripes and discovered we have a free wash coming only it was not the $5 wash... it was the $11 one! So my truck is now totally legal, totally clean and totally MINE!

Hugs y'all!

  1. You two did a fantastic job with the sales this weekend, Mel! That cutting mat for $2 is quite the steal, for sure. I adore that little wicker sewing basket ~ it's just too stinkin' cute!

    Hugs!

  2. Oh congrats on paying off your truck! What a wonderful feeling. We are devising a plan to have my car paid off in 10 months and I am so excited!
    As usual, you had some awesome yard sale finds!
