I am a little behind on my blogging - but we've been pretty busy these past couple of weeks. Anyhow...
Two weeks ago Mom and I hit up two consignment sales that they were having in Fayetteville. When I say I hit the Motherload - I really mean we racked up some great deals.
We were a little unsure if there were going to be a whole lot of "good stuff" let since we went on Saturday and the sale started on Friday. But not only did we find a whole bunch of "good stuff" most of it was included in the 1/2 price sale.
So..... for $150.00 look at what we got!
Seriously - an entire summer wardrobe. I didn't even bother counting what all we had clothes wise - it's a lot. We got a few smocked summer dresses that retail way over $30 in boutiques for like $5 and $10 - one even still had tags on it! And more sun dresses, shorts and shirts then you can imagine. I paid $ .25 and $ .50 for some of the t-shirts that are great for play clothes. And we really were quite impressed - everything was in great shape. We even picked up an Old Navy swim suit that doesn't look like it's ever been worn for $1.00. Oh - and a set of monitors for the lake for $2.50 - yes you read that correct!
And how about 8 pairs of shoes and a pair of dress up slippers with Snow White. For all you savvy mom's out there - yes the pink pair in the back and the green pair in the front are "Puddle Jumpers" I paid $2.00 a pair for them! Ha - beat that $40 pairs of shoes! And two pairs of Stride Rite tennis shoes - one for $3.00 one for $2.50. None of them even had dirt on the bottoms!
And how about a Leap Frog Jr. Reading System with 6 book for $15.00
And the find of the day...... The Cozy Coupe - $10.00.
Mom picked up a baby doll bed and matching stroller for $3.00 and some puzzles for like $ .50. Oh, and a kindergarten mat for $2.50 - I know P's a while away from needing one but she likes to lay on the floor at Grammy's house and it works perfect.
Oh, and I almost forgot - Kathy went to the sale on Friday and got a convertible crib that is beautiful for $100.00 - and it included the mattress!
I may never shop retail again!
Then we played and played and played. The swings are always Payton's favorite part!
The we went on a long walk.
And played on the neighbor's playground.
After some bleach and a little pressure washing by daddy - they were good as new!
And Payton had a blast walking in and out of all the holes and doors!
And you know the girl loves her some "ides" (Slides)
So hopefully the weather will warm up and stay warm so we can get our backyard cleaned up and ready to play in!
