The Cappuccino Life

May. 17, 2008 - Super Savings Saturday

This is part of my haul this weekend.  $29 seems like a lot for such a small pile, but one of the blouses originally cost $35, and was still brand new with it's price tag on.  Two skirts, two shirts for me, and they all fit *well* and look good, which makes them worth their weight in gold for someone my size.  Scrub pants for Josiah, shoes that Asrat will be growing into, and leather boots for Gebre.  Also in the front you can see two kids "carpenter" projects, which went straight into my gift drawer for Christmas.  Also that sturdy little laundry basket, a diaper cover, a Thomas book (Gebre's obsession) and a picture frame.

Also this weekend I found an umbrella stroller in great shape for $4, and two bags full of never-worn maternity/nursing (for next time around) and infant clothes for $8.  The garage sale at which I found those clothes was really mind blowing.  The sellers had set up racks and racks to accomodate the many hundreds of clothing items, some of them never worn that had belonged to the two children in the family.  And for once, the prices were decent--.25c to $1 for individual items.

I relate to your enthusiasm for bargains. My husband and I went to our favorite bargain event yesterday; a used book sale to benefit the public library.
We bought 28 books for $28 and they are all books we want to read.
