Garage Sales

A friend texted me last night and wanted to know if I wanted to hit a few garage sales with her this morning. I will almost always go if somebody compels me to visit a garage sale. I find them so intriguing. It's amazing to see the stuff people keep around, and sometimes it's even more amazing that they think I would want to pay for it. . . and . . . then there are the treasures. . . those one of a kind things you find that nobody else will be able to easily duplicate. I love to try to talk them down. I love it when I feel like I got a good bargain! Neither of us had any luck this morning but it was fun to get out with my friend in search of . . . treasure!

i've always wanted to hit a flea market, so let me know if you want to some time. i have fantasies about getting a great piece of furniture.. a diamond in the rough.. for a few dollars and rehabbing it.

It's so true--it is interesting to see what people even bought in the first place! Why are they selling it? What are they going to replace it with? I am seeing garage sales in a whole new light!!!!
