Garage Sale Finds!!!

I have been loving the great garage sale weather that we have been having here. Not too hot, but pretty sunny days. I love love getting great bargains & LOVE going to garage sales! I thought that I would share some recent finds. I know it looks like I only shop for Caden, but I do buy other things too. Just this past weekend, I got some really cute curtains for my soon to be completed kitchen (the new contractor starts tomorrow- the old one who started the job in FEBRUARY is out of comission)!! Can we say PATIENCE?? I also got a brand new Cuisanart Ice Cream & Yogurt maker for $5- retails for $60!! I can't wait to make homemade strawberry Ice Cream on my porch this summer! Below is my cute model showing off his new Step 2 table & chairs for future snack time & art projects!!
Price? $5.00!!
I got a whole package (unopened) of Huggies Diapers in Caden's size for $1.00!!

This great Step 2 car costs $2.50 & looks like it has never been used!

Finally, Caden's very favorite find is this train. My house is being overtaken by baby toys & I got this with the full intention of taking it to my parent's house so that he could play with it when he goes to visit. However, he LOVES this so it is parked in my living room. This plays music & honks & Winnie the Pooh even talks & Caden has started taking a few steps while pushing this around. This may be the toy that gets him walking. He waves to everyone on this & it is too cute!

Although I would say the cost of this is= Priceless- It costs me $5.00!!

I have learned, especially in this economy- Don't buy baby toys new just shop at garage sales & you can find almost anything & be proud of the great buy that you got!! One thing however, that we have bought new recently, is a Skyfort Cedar Play Set. It is being installed now & will hopefully be completed soon!! It should look like this when it is done!! I am really hoping it looks like this. These things come in about a million pieces!! Caden & Jade are looking forward to playing soon!! Now I have posted twice in one week! I am doing better!
