Enjoying the Summer Yard Sales

I love the thrill of a bargain.  There’s not much better bargains to be found than at a yard sale.  Last week, my family stopped at a few yard sales.  A neighborhood in the area was supposed to have a neighborhood yard sale, but only a few houses participated.  I was a little disappointed, but I was still able to find some deals!

1st stop: Almost everything I found was $.25.  Wowwee!  As you can see here, I got some nice books for only 25 cents.  The pink books are some pre-k/kindergarten books.  He let me have all of them for …read more

Also, last week I shopped at Harris Teeter while they were having their triple coupon sale.  I ended up with about $160 in groceries for only $60.  My cabinets are pretty full right now and other than fresh items (milk, …read more
