Day 2 of yard sale finds...


Saturday, I got up early by myself and headed out down Boyd's Creek. It is usually a great location to go to yard sales. People just stick signs on the road; they don't even advertise in the paper. I took a lot of side roads and got some pretty decent bargains. The first stop was to go back to the one from Friday to see if I missed anything. I got a bag of vintage lace for .10 cents.  


She had these three patterns from the early 1980's of peasant skirts. They were all the rage when I got married in 1981 and they are coming back into style. I have a friend who has opened her own business and she is making peasant skirts so I picked these up for her. They were just .05 cents each. 


She also had a pair of scissors that were extremely nice. They were older scissors but you could tell they were barely ever used. For just a dime I had to get them. They are perfect for cutting material.

 

Then I went onto another sell and found this cute doily and this neat little acorn candy dish. I'm getting  ready to decorate for fall so I thought these might come in handy. 


I got these vintage Little Golden Books for just a nickle a piece. 


One place I went, had some free ribbon so I got some orange to use in a fall decoration I'm doing.


This was just a quarter at another sale. I thought it was cute. 


But my deal of the day for Saturday was this Gevalia coffee pot that was still in the box. She had got a Gevalia and a Keurig and decided to just keep the Keurig. So I got this for just $5.00. Since Hubby's coffee pot went kaput, we haven't found one we liked and we needed a black one to match the other appliances so I wasn't about to pass it up for $5.00.


What was your latest bargain find?
