Ahh Thats Better

I stopped at 2 Rummage Sales and a new Resale store in our town. 

The first sale I bought the 
Lite Brite with the extra papers and pegs
Build a Bear shoes
2 Build a Bear outfits
and the next sale I didn't buy anything.  They wanted $2 for a run of the mill Mr. Potatohead.  I offered a $1 and they would take it...  So I left empty handed.
Then I went to the new resale shop
5 Weight Watcher books
2 community cookbooks
Jello Jiggler Egg Mold
Pampered Chef cookbook
2 Pampered Chef cheese cutters
Tongs (for me)
And the Hook Rug Yarn is from St Vinnies.. I stopped there too.  They had a Oster Ice cream/yogurt maker which I want so I can make sugar free ~ fat free frozen yogurt.  The maker was unmarked so I took it up to the check out to see what they wanted for it.  They checked to see if it worked and then said $5!!  I was shocked because none of their small appliances are over $3 but since I wanted it they said $5.  You should have seen this..  it was filthy, it needed a lot of deep cleaned.  Ummm  no they can keep it.  I politely said no.  They seemed happy to keep it...  I wonder if that was his reason...  he wanted it?

Anyway I was very happy with my small haul.  The new resale shop has a ton of clothes and cheap.  I'm stopping back tomorrow with my daughter.  $4 for name brand jeans...  she will be in heaven.

First Rummage Sale Day of the Year

I went to my first rummage sales of the year.  Well I came home with nothing.  I mean nothing.  The first sale was a lot of nothing.  The second and third sales decided not to open because of rain..  The next sale was a few pieces of furniture.  The next one was a few boxes turned over with a few tools laying on top.  And the last last one was a rummage sale that goes all summer long.  I started a list of address's of sales like that...  that run a summer long. 

I used the gps on my phone today.  It works great.  I like it. 

I really like my phone however the battery has a very short life.  I usually unplug it from the charger about 6 in the morning and my 4:30 in the afternoon it needs to be charged again.  And thats usually when I'm on the go I need the phone charged.  So I'm going to have to remember to charge it when I'm in the house in the early after noon.  This is really going to be a problem when we are camping at carshows.  We don't have electricity.  We have a generator and even tho it's a "quiet" one it' still makes a lot of noise, so having it running for an hour to charge phones isn't much fun.  But the kids will be happy to have the generator on so they can watch TV and have the air conditioner on. 

There are a few sales again tomorrow.  I don't know if I want to waste the time and the gas.  Gas is $3.89 to $3.93 a gallon here.  My brother lives in Milwaukee he said its $4.25 a gallon there.  Man!!

Ahh Spring




Happy Spring!
