Garage Sales ROCK!

Anyone that knows me understands that I hate crowds, digging through merchandise, and pushy people. I do however, LOVE a great deal so when a friend of mine at work asked me to head to the cities for some garage sales, I was all over it. I found so much great stuff and Justin is very annoyed at my talk about all the good deals but MAN, I lucked out! I only spent about $65 and here are just a few of the things I can remember off the top of my head that I found:
  • kids collapsible picnic table
  • Boppy pillow and slipcover
  • LOTS of Baby Einstein toys
  • a few sleepers
  • Leapfrog activity table
  • Rain forest remote controlled mobile- $10!!! retails for over $50
  • Leapfrog learning toys

The only thing I didn't find that I was kind of looking for was an Excersaucer but I know that isn't a necessity right away. :) Have I mentioned that I absolutely love shopping for the baby? I think I am getting addicted so I had better stop soon!

I also picked out, ordered, and received the bedding/nursery stuff yesterday so it is all coming together. Now I just want to get the room painted and set up and we should be good to go. I am starting to feel like things are coming together and that maybe, just maybe we will be ready for Baby Hunecke to make it's appearance in October!

  1. You are too cute Mandy! Did you get the Leapfrog Activity table that is pictured? We have that and both kids loved it---especially Jenna!

  2. yeah, that is the table that I got. I have heard LOTS of moms rave about it so I figured it was worth the money. I realize I am a dork blogging about this stuff but to be honest, I can't help it! :) he he he
