Thrifty Buys - Community Yard Sale


My husband Dave has always been a thrifty kind of guy. After nine years of marriage, his thrifty ways have rubbed off on me - a natural born spender! Towards the end of last summer, my husband turned me on to yard sales. I was hooked! So now that it is Spring, I'm excited to get back out there and find some thrifty treasures!

On Saturday, we found a community yard sale near our neighborhood. Dave got up early and did an initial survey of the sale.  Then came back and got me out of bed because he found something he knew I would like!  Along the way we picked up the three vine balls and wooden salad bowls for $5 total.  A paper towel holder for .25 along with a tricycle (can't believe I forgot to take a picture!) for $5.  The kids definitely loved that!



An ornamental wall plaque for $3


Wall mounted hooks with crackle finish for $1


And what Dave got me out of bed for - these four old windows for $1 each!  I'm hoping to use one or two of these on our fireplace mantel.   

This coming weekend we will be getting up early to attend one of our favorite church yard sales. 
I can't wait!

Thanks for stopping by!
