Yard Saling, Flea Market, & Thrift Store Adventures

I've said it before and I’ll say it again, I LOVE SHOPPING! There’s something special and exciting about thrift stores and yard sales; giving a new life to something that’s already been used and let’s not forget getting good deal$!

For me, the actual shopping experience is where the fun is. Getting up early on a Saturday morning with a list of yard sales and hitting the road not knowing what you’re going to find is never boring! I like meeting strangers as I look through their unwanted items and negotiate prices.

I’m always on the look out for something unique and if I can’t find it at a yard sale I can definitely find it at a thrift store. I have some favorite thrift stores and I’m always looking for new places to check out. Every time I go to a yard sale or a thrift store it’s an adventure and now I’d like to share those adventures with world.

A few months ago I saw some local yard sale leftovers on Craigslist under the free section. I immediately drove over and picked up a lot of goodies.

I'm planning to auction it off on eBay so I was trying to get an idea of how much it sells for and couldn't find any recently listed. I did notice that there were lots of ads up for auction. Miss Clairol was the first in home hair color and helped erased the weird stigmatism then associated with coloring your hair. Within six years..

Yardsaling in the Fall

Posted by Amy Kinder | On 09 Nov 2013 | Updated on 01 Apr 2014 | Added in Yard Saling, Flea Market, & Thrift Store Adventures |

If you're keeping up with the blog then you know last week I went to a new thrift store. If you're not keeping up, go back and check it out. Today I listed my funky find of a green vase on eBay from last week. If you want to get in on the bidding war check out the auction by clicking on the picture of the vase. It's a fabulous vase but it's been sitting on my desk for a week all lonely and unappreciated so it's time to let it loose and allow it to explore the world. More importantly, it's time to make more room on my desk for new purc..
