Crazy Little Thing Called Love: 06/18/2011 - My Other Middle Name

As I am getting older, I'm trying to really identify what my passions are in life, especially having kids. Small children tend to take the focus off of ones self and you can lose track of who you are and what you love. I currently have a short list of things that light me on fire with the passion of an addict. Today, I was in rare form...100 degree temps did little to break my focus. Today was a special day...Saturday....YARD SALE DAY!

Don't get me wrong, not every yard sale is worth drooling over. In Nevada, I have found only about 1 out of every 5 is good. I don't want to look at people's over priced junk. You seriously think someone is going to buy your tattered, stained, and ripped bowling towel for $5? PASS! I've seen it all!

Today I only went to one sale, twice. Yes, it was that good. Honestly, if I knew they were having it again tomorrow, I'd show up again! The sale was listed on my favorite web page for sales: yardsaletreasuremap.com
It is AWESOME! Try it some time! It pulls all the sales from Craig's List and more! (More details about how to have a sale later, as I love to have sales too!!!)

Anyway, it was close to the house, well organized, and they wanted stuff to move...I took the kids and started to hunt. The Superkids were doing great, but I knew they wouldn't last and it was getting hot fast! Our first trip I spent a whopping $5.

I knew I needed to go back and rescope it out....and this was the kicker...While looking through the kids clothes one of the ladies working the sale handed me a garbage bag and said, "fill it, $5"! Now I've been given a small box and told $5, but a garbage bag?!@$!!! The icing on the cake...the clothes was in mint condition and amazing brands! Fox, Hurley, Under Armor, Gap, Ralph Lauren, Keen, Adidas, Nike, Polo, Ecko, Land's End, Ann Taylor, Guess, Children's Place, Melissa & Doug, Disney Store and MORE!!!! The books and toys were in beautiful shape too!

So, what did I get for $17?
