First Yard Sale Weekend

It's finally garage sale season!  I had a great day Saturday, and I was only out from 7:30 to 8:30!

Sale #1 = $3.50
 1. Train Toy - $.50 This item was unmarked. I was going to offer $1, but I know from experience to ask them what they want for it first.  If it's higher than what I want to pay, I say "How about x?" and go from there.  Today, she said $.50.  If I had offered my $1, I would have paid double.

2. Cool Winter Sweater - $3 It might seem a little strange to spend $3 for a winter sweater in the spring, but I have been FREEZING at work the past few days, so I may even wear it this season!

Sale #2 = $6.00
 3-5. Polo Shirts - These were for my dad, and they were in great shape and only $2 per shirt!

Sale #3 = $1.50

6. Cardigan - $.50 and just my size
7. Green Flowered Shirt - $.50 and something different than what I usually pick for my wardrobe
8. 3T Train Thermal Shirt - $.25 which is my target price for kid clothes. It's too big now but it will fit perfectly next year.

Sale #4 = $1.00

 9. Misc. Kitchen Items - $1 (if you click the picture you can see they were individually marked...I over-paid by $.15 just to save the lady the hassle of finding a dime and a nickel.)  I've been doing a ton of baking lately and am finding that you can never have too many measuring cups or teaspoons.

Total for Day = $12.00!
