I go to our local GW almost daily on my break, so I'm always finding amazing deals - too many to list!
Yesterday, I was especially excited because I found two Pyrex mixing bowls in New Dot - the yellow ($3.99) and orange ($4.99) ones. I know the two larger bowls weren't donated, because the manager checked for me. I'm not a big collector of Pyrex, but couldn't pass them up.
I also picked up a really neat flat black cat blow mold for $3.99. On closer inspection, there is a signature of Don Featherstone, the creator of the original plastic pink flamingo. There is one on ebay right now with a bid of over $60! I am excited to add it to my indoor Halloween decorations.
I stopped at a garage sale last Friday and picked up a box full of nice fall colored silk flowers for $5. I'm going to make an arrangement for my in-laws gravestone.

I'm hoping it's OK to bump this. I bought a sesame street club house for about $20 shipped from the good will online. I could see in one photo that there might be stuff inside, so I bid on it. I'm happy to say it did come with the jump rope and two of the barrels, as well as two random non sesame people, two adventure people and some blocks and the best part is the tire swing is not broken (we actually have this set but the swing was broken and i figured for $20 it was easier than trying to figure out how to fuse the swing back together. Now to figure out what to do worn the old one

Garage sale heaven in my town today. I stopped after 2. The owner was a stamping up distributor. I got a box full of cardstock almost too heavy to carry to the car and 8 simply scrapping kits. ..most unopened. $25. There was a lady who saw me paying and said she saw it and walked away but was going back to get it. I felt really bad. But I left the stickers for her.
