    Great book finds. I hear ya about the baby clothes. When I was pregnant, there wasn't an article of clothing to be found or any baby gear at the sales I saw. It was crazy. Even on ebay, I'd see the clothing lots being bidded on at such an insane amount of money that I wouldn't even consider bidding.

    Hoping you find some baby bargains soon.

    WTG Kim, great buys on the books. I am sorry you did not find any baby items, maybe tomorrow will be better.

    Great deals on the books I have a bunch of baby stuff I need to sell at a yard sale, but they're all big things, no clothes. I hope you find some great baby bargains soon!

    Talking White mountain freezer

    I went to a flea market and I found a 6 qt crank ice cream maker. I have been looking for one for a long time. I even had the recipe booklet inside.

    I haven't made ice cream since I was a kid and I wanted ds to enjoy it like we used to.

    Just wanted to suggest for the baby clothes to put up a sign at your local grocery store. I've had GREAT luck with this with people who had tons but didn't want the hassle of a garage sale and buying "bulk", i.e. asking "what will you take for the whole box of 12 to 18 mos. old stuff?" was much cheaper than buying things individually. I've had great fun buying for my little guy, age 17 mos., but as he's getting bigger, the boondoggles sp? of great buys are a bit less as kids seem to wear out clothes more at this age.
