Nana's are Beautiful
I haven't had an over abundance of luck this year in this dept. Hit some not too bad ones........but nothing like a normal year.
So this morning Travis and I go out to pay bills. I spot a sign.........not a bad sale. Spot another sign.............. Now I don't like to pass up thurs sales because if you want the good stuff, you need to hit a sale on the first day. That was at 9:30am.
I found brandon his very own big boy bike with training wheels for 5 bucks. Connor a fisher price version for 4.00. Went to a swap shop that easy child never wants to visit, and found the boys 2 steel Tonka jeeps that originated in MY childhood, both huge and in good condition. They're going to freak! lol Also found a cute plastic lawn mower for them.
I found Aubrey a anatomically correct newborn that hit the market when easy child was about 5-6 yrs old. Then stumbled onto a sale that had like new beautiful newborn girl things for .15 ea! So she not only got the doll but a wardrobe to go with it that is real and cute and can be washed.
This, of course, was when I wasn't even looking for them. But sometimes that is how it happens. I also tend to stop at all sales, while if it doesn't look good to easy child from the street she keeps driving. Now I've found some awfully nice treasures in some of the poorest neighborhoods at sales that didn't look like they had anything to offer. One example is the name brand school clothes entire ward robe for Alex a couple of years ago that I paid 10.00 for! So, no. I don't pass those up.
So today seemed to be vintage toy day I guess. But I LIKE that swap shop. Reasonable prices, unusual items and if easy child is smart she can buy Darrin's video games there for a steal.
Tickled with my finds. The grandkids are going to be thrilled with them, especially the boys.
Anyone else having any luck lately?
