Tomorrow I am waking up super early to go yard sale-ing! I'm so excited and already have my coffee pot ready to go....so that I can (of course) walk and wake up at the same time.
I have always been a fan of good deals and typically don't buy something unless I feel like I'm getting a true bargain (it's almost a flaw...), so I am thrilled to put my thriftiness to the test. Our quaint little village town has a yard sale on the first Saturday of June each year and it's the coolest thing. Neighbors come out of the woodwork like crazy and everyone gets to meet one another, shop around, and eat baked goodies. What-a-treat!
Okay, so I am trying not to get my hopes up too much, just in case I can't find that "amazing purchase". Isn't that always the case? A friend will always find this AMAZING yard sale find, but when I look around, I see 1970's kitchen wall art or an exercise bike with one wheel missing. Ugh. An old boss of mine found an espresso machine (worth like $200) for $10 at a yard sale last year. I really am hoping for some good slightly used books and/or a new bike.
Wish me luck!
Oh, and get this...my husband wants to join!
