Garage SOLD
Wednesday, April 25, 2007
Now that we are less a month away from closing our house and with Spring's warmer breezes, garage sales are a-mushroomin'! Time to skimp! We always joke around about eating just twice a day, not going on vacations and wearing "bahag" all because we now have to pay for mortgage. As much as it sucks not to have all the money in the world, it actually has helped us discipline ourselves from buying into ANY trend. Because we don't have any money, it's easy for us to look past the wants and stick with the needs. We rarely buy regular price and we hardly purchase anything on impulse. Tahnee told me about this placed called Thriftworld and I really ought to check it out. I love bargain shopping!
HUGE SEGUE dontchootink? Back to the program.
We have been garage sale hopping for the past 2 weekends. So far, we have been very happy with our purchases because most of it has been for the house. We have bought a water fountain, a wall clock, a scanner, a jar of river stones, a boardgame, a bag and several other stuff. Last Sunday was crazy because we went to not one, but THREE garage sales. The second one we went to was from a posh neighborhood so most of the stuff on display were high end. There we met a woman who gave us her card for us to check out her puppies. Sooo cute! It was a surprise weekend for us, one we truly enjoyed. We're not stopping the hopping anytime soon so I hope we bring enough cash every weekend. Who knows? We just might see more garage sales at the side of the road.
