this morning, I got to spend a few hours garage saling (without the kiddos), and I hit the JACKPOT. I came home with 2 trashbags full of stuff! The items value at roughly $500.30 and I only spent $30 for all of it! My estimates show that I saved over 80% off the retail prices. My purchases included kids clothes, a Halloween costume for Ava, 2 portable kids chairs, games, books, DVD's/CD's, a comforter for JG's big boy bed, and much more.
My top deals:
Lands' End twin comforter retail: $109.50 GGP (great garage sale price): $5
Leap Pad with 6 books/cartridges retail: $144 GGP: $6
2 portable kids chairs retail: $40 GGP: $1 (for both chairs!)
FeltKids Interactive Book: retail: $24.99 GGP: $0.50
My cheapest items were $0.25 and my most expensive one was $6.
I had such a great time... Any one want to join me for my next garage sale getaway? Trips are available most Saturday mornings (weather permitting) and departure times vary between 7:45-8am.

I would love to join you sometime in the future when Sam can watch Katherine. Next weekend is out but maybe the one after that.
Man, when we get back to Dallas and have a massive list of needs, I'm going to send you out hunting for us! You must be quite skilled and savvy to find and get those deals. Maybe you should come out here to shop since we have to negotiate all the time. You would love it!
Wow that's awesome, when my car/license situation is different I'd love to tag along sometime!!!
