Yard sale saturday! I have to chip chip chip to get those boys on the bandwagon, and I have to forfeit the farmers market ("but boys, it sounds so DELIGHTFUL" ....... silence ...... awkward glances to middle distance ...) but garbage sales here we come!!
I have narrowed it down to a field of TWO -first stop is a BLOCK SALE!! EVERYONE is having a garage sale ..... of crap....
One lady has some solid gold items but if you go anywhere near them - "that's not for sale " ... "oh thats not for sale" .. "no - nothing along there is for sale"... right-e-o then CRAZY - time to move along. But Grant did find some excellent vinyl including "Music To Strip By", and this solid gold Fred Astaire album complete with cha cha cha instruction sheet! oh happy days.
On to garage sale number two -oh dear lord - its as if baby jesus lead us to the garage sale of a man with Grant's taste, with a boyfriend with my taste, who both wear Peter's size in clothes. And they are clearing out the WHOLE HOUSE .... and the man in charge is BORED and couldn't care less!
The rooms are THEMED - robots in one, rat pack in another, tiki in another. Peter is busy rifling through the FABULOUS retro shirts (and creepily a few pairs of discarded panties - eeewww)
We have PILES of stuff -and the best part -no matter how big my pile becomes, the price seems to remain at $10.00!! best. garage. sale. ever.
we pile our treasures into the car, and EXHAUSTED - head off to find some coffee - I heart garage sale saturday!
