    Default Thrift store bonanza

    Woohoo. I hit the thrift store today and did awesome.

    I'm sure by now everyone is thinking aren't her kids clothed by now? rofl

    I try and buy clothing ahead for the kids. (anticipating their growth and the next season) Alexandra was still in need of pants, but of course my addiction comes into play when the clothes are so nice and so darn cheap.

    Granny, Sarge, and Guido...cover your eyes.

    I overspent a bit. ($20) Way more than I usually spend there. I usually go on super sale days, but I just could not resist.

    I got...
    3 dolls for Alexandra. (one is a Corolle)
    3 shirts for Zachary
    1 sweater for Zachary
    1 fleece vest for Zachary
    9 yes 9 pairs of pants for Alexandra (some in the next size she'll be in)
    2 sweaters for Alexandra
    4 shirts for Alexandra
    1 children's hardcover book

    All in awesome condition.

    There was an entire huge box of old knitting magazines. I'm not a knitter (not yet anyway), but thought man someone is going to be so happy to get those. They were $.60 cents each. Lucky they weren't crochet or I'd have done worse damage.
