fact of love is:. a & i really enjoy going to yardsales together and who wouldn't? talk about a cheap way to spend quality time together!
now i realize yardsales might not sound exciting but really... it is. we enjoy the initial 'hunt' scouring through newspapers and craigslist all to create the best route we will take in the morning; always starting with a trip to dunkin donuts for my coffee! we enjoy digging through and looking at lots of 'junk' to find the few items that we want. we enjoy the drives. we enjoy the conversation.
fact of hate is: i hate waking up early. pathetic, i know.
being a serious yardsaler is not for those who stroll out of their home at 10am hoping to find something amazing. o no. to really yardsale we are up and out the door no later than 6:30a. which frankly, is dreadful. painful. awful. especially for me!
even when the thought of waking up early makes tired, it is truly one of my favorite things to do with a. on a saturday morning. this season we actually found a bunch of gifts that were virtually brand new. unfortunately we have already given some away before i took a picture of them! oops!
however.. .some other great finds we found:
i hate a lot of vases. this was perfect for me!
the texture gives it a great look where
you can't see all the ugly stems or dirty water.
paid: $2.00
you can't go wrong with a Vera Bradley ID case.
this is now the keeper of my lipgloss and chapstick
paid: $1.00
my lovely hubby accidentally ordered me 2 sets of season 5
but never-fear.. yardsaling brought me my missing season
paid: $10.00
even though i love my sleep, i really can't wait til next year!
