    Default I went nuts at bag sale today.

    $5 a bag, and I bought 5 bags worth!

    So, I spent $25 total.

    * purple cape for Halloween.
    * 2 pair summer shorts for me.
    * about 10 books
    * several gift bags, a box of Christmas cards, and a couple of ornaments.
    * 6 small Christmas plates for giving cookies to the neighbors this Christmas.
    * 4 small decorative plaques for a gift for DD#1
    * a down jacket for DD#2
    * an old tablecloth
    * 2 pair leather boots that I hope will fit DD#2
    * a pair of black half-boots for me
    * several beanie babies
    * an 'Audrey Hepburn' style dress for DD#1
    * a leather jacket that might fit me or DH....if I lose a little weight
    * a black washable silk jacket for me.
    * a (possibly silverplate) tray
    * about 4 shirts for me
    * 3 shirts for the kids
    * a 'hippie style' purse for DD
    * 3 sweaters
    * one vest

    I think there's more, but that's all I remember right now.

    Wow- great buys!

    We don't have bag sales like that! Way to shop!
    Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.
