    Default Best Yard Sale Deals Ever!

    Today I got the best yard sale deals ever just down the street from my house. I noticed a beautiful window seat/hope chest when I drove by so I stopped to look closer. Perfect condition solid oak chest with a nice maroon cushion and she only wanted $25.00! I also got 4 shirts for my daugher $1.00 each, a skirt $1.00, pair of adjustable roller blades $1.00, and a purse for $1.00. Then as I was leaving I noticed a chest freezer. It was three years old but since she got an upright she sold it to me for $25.00!!! I sent the hubby back a few hours later to see if her crockpot was still there and since it looked like it was going to rain she told him to take whatever he wanted for free. He came home with an umbrella stroller, a crockpot, a Disney princess punch bowl and cup set, and a reptile cage with screen top, heater, and two small critter cages inside. All for free!!! By far my best yard sale experience ever!!

    Very nice
    The 3 yr old freezer for $ 25 is a outstanding deal.
