The Mother of all Garage Sales

I love a good garage sale, and this weekend my neighbors had the mother of all garage sales. I just have to share some of my finds!

Let's start with the toys:
All these look like they just came out of the box,
as a matter of fact, one set is still IN the box!

Did you notice the duck rocker chair all the toys are sitting in? We found that at a resale shop for $20! I don't know if that's a good deal because it's homemade, but it's just precious and Samweli loves it.
This rocker chair matches Noe's old homemade toybox
that is now in Samweli's room.

I got this lawn furniture for $5 a chair (including the cushions).

Samweli's infant carseat is now neatly tucked away in our shed awaiting it's next use, but while he fit in it, we always thought it'd be nice to have a 2nd base for another car. Noe found these camo Wolverine boots too. Sure, they aren't the newest model, but they are the right size for Noe. :)
Car seat base, new=$90, our price=$10
Wolverine boots, new=$90-$115, our price=$1

Noe also found 2 fishing rods for 50 cents each. The All-Star brand isn't anything too special, and one was broken. I wouldn't have known, but All-Star has a lifetime guarantee which means that Noe will get a brand new rod for the broken one. What a deal!

My favorite find was this vintage Winnie the Pooh bag made by Sears. I fell in love with it as soon as I laid eyes on it...and then even more when I saw the sticker price, $1. <--- Insert sigh of sweet bliss here. I'm just so happy. Hehe.

The most amazing part of all of this is that these are just some of the deals we found this weekend! I hope you enjoyed seeing all my great finds and got to share in the excitement with me.

Happy Garage-saling!
