The best garage sale in the world

OK, so Saturday I am coming home from town and I see a garage sale sign.  I had a few extra minutes so I pulled in.

Boy, did I hit the mother load.

I have three girls going to school this year so that means school clothes for three little fashion Divas.

This woman had these tables full of clothes in the sizes of my girls all for a quarter a piece!  They were the nicest clothes I have ever seen at a yard sale.  The little girl who owned these clothes was the only girl in the family and the Mom obviously loved to dress her.


Thank God.

I could feel myself hyperventilating.  I got Daisy Kingdom dresses that were hand made by a seamstress.

"My sister has these hand made".

I tried not to faint.

I paid a quarter a piece for 5 of them.

I thought for sure I would have a heart attack.  I tried to stay composed.

She had one table of all Mary Kate and Ashley.  I bought half the table.

I grabbed a pair of red cowboy boots for my Izzy.

Fifteen dollars later I had a van full of school clothes.

Holy crap.

I ran home, hung everything on hangers and said a silent prayer to St Francis of the Garage Sale.

Have a great day.

Talk later,

Annie

YaY! You lucky woman! I know that feelin' of hittin' the garage sale jackpot..when you just can't help yourself from just skippin' and gigglin' all the way back to your vehicle! ..(but you're really tryin' to hold it in..afraid they might take the stuff back or want to charge more!!) Glad your pretty little girls will be stylin' this fall!
