Yardsales and Fundraisers!

Friday night Aaron had a brilliant idea of how we could spend our Saturday...yardsaling! Saturday morning was spent looking up yardsales on KSL and driving around from about 11:30 AM to 2:00 PM getting killer deals! We got a little bit wet but it was well worth it!

We started in North Ogden. At the first stop we spent $15.50. We got two pairs of cuff links, two vinyl wall sayings, 6 packs of scrapbook paper (one came with a digital scrapbook program and HP photo editing program), 2 packs of rub-on stickers, and 2 packs of cute metal things for scrapbooking. YAY! Maybe now I will have more incentive to scrapbook!

















Subtotal = $15.50

South Weber ("WEBBER" according to our GPS! HAHA!) was next. We got a diaper warmer with one new pad and 2 sets of king-sized sheets (including a flat sheet, fitted sheet, and 2 king pillowcases each) for a whopping $23.00! For those of you who have ever bought king-sized sheets, you know this is a great deal!
















Subtotal = $38.50

As we were driving to the South Weber yardsale we noticed a sign for a fundraiser for a guy who needs eye surgery. We decided to try to find it and we succeeded! We bought 2 hamburgers (probably the best home-cooked hamburgers I have EVER had!), a bag of 3 scrumptious chocolate chip cookies, a scotcheroo, and 10 super cute and crafty cards! We spent $16.00 and we got to help this guy out! You gotta love service!














Subtotal = $54.50

The next yardsale we went to was in Clinton. They had TONS of beauty products! We bought 2 things of Cover Girl Lash Blast mascara (my favorite kind!), a bag of Plackers flossers, a big bottle of Johnson's baby lotion, and a big bottle of Johnson's bedtime moisture wash for a total of $11.00! WOW! I just bought some mascara last week for $6.50 at Wal-Mart...for 1 thing of it, same kind! I couldn't resist buying more at such a great price!
















Subtotal = $65.50

The last yardsale for the day was in Hooper, right down the street from where Aaron grew up! There was mostly old people stuff but we did find some good dress pants. The only problem was that they were too small for Aaron. Luckily, they are just the right size for my younger brother! One pair of Dockers still has the tags on! We bought 4 pairs of great condition dress pants for $9.00 total! Just at the beginning of April we bought my brother a pair of dress pants from Wal-Mart for $13.00. CRAZY SAVINGS!














Grand Total = $74.50 and we got lunch and snacks out of it too!

What a fun and exhausting day! I can't wait to yardsale with my honey again! Thanks, babe! It was an AWESOME day!

There were several other yardsales on our list but they were too wimpy to face the rain! Their loss!
