Our community garage sale took place this weekend. We didn't sell anything this year, but we had lots of fun prowling around looking at what our neighbours had to sell. I bought a couple of things. The pictures tell the story:
Karen tried to get me to buy these glasses. I said no thanks but I did accept the King Kong coffee mug. Karen gave it to me for free. I can't wait to show the seniors this one at coffee time!
I really liked this chair that our Adam and Stephanie had for sale, but no room in our home, alas. Andy bought 2 Samsonite suitcases from them for $5 each, but he wouldn't pose for a photo.
Lola, who is 5 years old, was selling lemonade. That's her little brother Coulson, helping. Andy and I each had a glass each, a wonderful refreshment for just 25 cents each.
And this is my big find of the day. Six beautiful wine glasses for $12. I looked them up online and found out
I really did get a good deal. On the other hand,
they are available through other suppliers.
Later in the day we had our traditional neighbours sitting outside to have a drink and enjoy the beginning of the summer. It was a lovely day!
question: do you sell or shop at garage sales?
