One more thing

I forgot that Mom and I went yard saling this morning. We left a little before 7:00 and went to about 8 or 9 yard sales before I had to get back home. I spent $15.00...not too bad for all I got. Let's see if I can remember...

Brand new, never before opened, battery operated light saber (the blue one). This will be a birthday gift or Christmas gift for Ben -- PLEASE do not tell him! ;o)

Three Karen Kingsbury books that I promptly put on Ebay for resale. I got them for .50 each and I started bidding at $2.50 each. We'll see!

A boxed set of Tracie Peterson books...which are also now on Ebay.

Another book called "Ain't No River" by Sharon Ewell Foster.

Two oversized I Spy books.

One I Spy computer game.

A boxed set of Little Rascals vhs movies

A pool frisbee and some diving sticks

25 Highlights magazines that have not been marked in!

A bag of Sharpies

The book Dreamer

A Cranium game

A Pirate game

A 5-candle candler holder

A book on teaching teens about finances by Larry Burkette

Hmmm...it seems like there's more, but I can't think of anything else right now. I think Mom's best deal was a quilt that still had the tags on it. It was purchased at Cracker Barrel (which means it was pretty expensive), and she paid $4.00 for it!

We had a great time! (okay...now I'm off to bed and my book!)

WHAT GREAT DEALS! Those sound like the kind I don't mind getting up at 0'dark thirty to go after.

I love a good deal!

I resisted the very strong urge to go garage saleing yesterday. The last thing I need right now is more stuff that I "need" and then will need to pack and move to our new house!

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
