    Default Went to a yard sale while working today...lol

    There is a dance studio a few doors down from us and they are moving to the other end of town. They are having an inside yard sale down there today and I told the girl I work with about it.

    She went down there and got a Stroller, a board game for one son, a toy of the other on, 3 pairs of shorts, a pair of capris, a pair of jeans, 2 pairs of khakis and some shirts for a total of $20.

    After she left I took the cordless phone and the keys to the register and went down there for a few minutes. I got 2 pair of pants (some khakis and a pair of bright green ones) and 4 tops for $6.

    I would have looked for more stuff but a customer came and I had to come back to work. I'm thinking about running back down there and making sure I didn't miss anything good....lol

    okey, so I went back. I went to the toys this time. I got a Leap Frog See & learn Piano, a fisher price toy that looks like a drum and tamborine combo, a musical story book of Christmas songs, a learn with Pooh activity book with 3 original Pooh stories included, a steering wheel toy with a horn, turn signals key and cell phone and one of those staking ring (cone) toys for $3.00 and since they are trying to raise money I gave her the $5 I had with me.

    I am currently cleaning the toys off since they've been played with a lot today that way they will be ready for Paige to play with when I get home.

    I started looking on line for more Leap Frog toys since we still have some money on a Target and Babies R Us gift card and the piano was listed at $14.88.....I can't believe she was going to let me have it for 50 cents. The only thing is there are scratches on the handle but I wiped it down (and the others) with some cleaner at work and got all the smudges off and they all look brand new
