I am a fan of garage sales. I am not an "Every Saturday of the spring, summer, and fall garage saler", but I do enjoy getting gently used items at a fraction of the retail price. This last weekend was our town-wide garage sale. My sister-in-law and I tootled around town for a couple hours. She bought quite a few cute clothing items for her daughter, and I ended up with three things.
(Old high chair with the pad from a chair as a backrest....many unseen crumbs in cracks)
New-to-us wooden high chair with no hidden crumbs
Thanks, Dave, for helping Chad get it home!
Number 1: A baseball t-shirt type onesie for Cooper. $ .50
Number 2: A high chair.... though we already had two high chairs in our house (one of which had been a shower gift for our eldest....11 years ago, and the other had been rescued from the curbside before being taken to the junk). This new model is easier to clean up, doesn't have a plastic pad that cracks and traps crumbs, and is just prettier. $10 (Thanks, Erin.)

Our garage frig. kicked the bucket over the winter, and finding spaces for frozen pizzas, pre-made casseroles, and cans of diet Pepsi was becoming increasingly difficult. $50

No way, a fridge? I'm jealous! One of the things I don't like about living where we do is that there aren't garage sales! I love hunting through stuff to find a bargain. Hope to see you in June!
