weekend booty


and much loot was gotten around and about Duncan! This weekend was super for garage sale finds and thrift store deals. I can only imagine it will get better as Garage Sale Season will only intensify with warmer weather, and can foresee my pile of loot growing into a large stack. with what will I do with it all, who knows? If you send me your address and requests I can start a gift giving correspondence type of deal.

Here's what I got and for how much: (I'll go in clockwise fashion from the bag on the left)

-this bag is a nice emerald green which the photo doesn't give justice - $1 (garage sale)
-2 pieces of luggage (also green) great for RISD trip, or so I thought but as my mom and I started walking around the neighbourhood garage sale, I was carrying this luggage I just bought, and thought, good lord, it's so heavy and there's nothing in it yet! [not pictured-too big] - $2 (same garage sale as above)
-R2D2 and C3PO puzzle - $1 - garage sale
-Electric yet dark blue (my new favourite colour) terry cloth tube top dress (but not that tight) - 99 cents - Sassy Lion Thrift Store
-Horse Dish - will be my new soap dish - 10 cents - garage sale
-Lassie Dog Cup - came free with luggage
-White cardigan - 99 cents - Sassy Lion Thrift Store
-phone - 50 cents - garage sale - important to have an analogue phone if the power goes out!

Grand total of $6.48. It feels like a time warp alternate universe of anti-inflation, it's fun!

Yeah, since I've posted this I haven't been to any garage sales yet, maybe this will be my last. People go crazy for them here.
