    Default Local sale was 1.00 per bag

    Yesterday DD and I hit a local yard sale that was advertised as 1.00 a bag. The folks selling had boxes, boxes and boxes in a garage to sift through. But for a grand sum of 3.00 I got the following:

    Washing basin and pitcher - very antique and lovely
    2 glass casserole dishes
    Tall tupperware spegetti storage unit
    4 tupperware storage containers of various sizes
    Oil lamp with oil still in it. Pretty and useful when electric goes out
    antique muffin tin for oldest DD to hand on her walls
    Cinderella egg decorating kit for Easter

    The wash basin and pitcher itself I have seen sold for 30/40 dollars at local sales. What a deal !

    I was tempted to get alot more but am trying to stick to my resolution to limit the amount of "things" in my home
