It's That Time of the Year Again!

Yard Sale Season is back! I've been an avid yard sale shopper for more than two years now. It's the thrill of the find, the early Saturday morning when most are still asleep, giggling with my sister over what we paid for something, getting compliments on my home decor/clothes that I paid next to nothing for, my husband's bragging about my finds (he's still in awe of the Columbia fleece I bought him for $3:), and a hot cup of coffee in my hand that makes it one of my favorite things to do!
Brittany and I are geared up for the first big yard sale day of 2011:), so in honor of that I've found lots of pictures of some of my favorite finds from 2009 and 2010. I'll throw in the prices if I remember off the top of my head...

Stuff for my house:

Love baskets! Use them all the time!

Orange sofa: $80

I love my little rooster that was $0.50!

$5 for milk glass lamp

I love this silhouette for $3.

the lamp shades were only a $1 a piece!

enormous rug, perfect condition $80

Stuff for Ava:)

Ava's lady bug costume: $0.50

$3

I can hardly bring myself to pay full price for a movie. Ava has a great selection of movies.

Ava has so many jeans, and I've only paid full price for 2 pair. All others have been from yard sales.

I've never paid full price for a swim suit.

We used the Dora pinata at her Dora-themed party!

Brittany and I have found Ava rainboots in sizes 5, 6, 7, 8 at yard sales!

We love pajamas! Ava wore these adorable Christmas pjs this past winter. $1/pair

Stuff for school:

Vera Bradley lunch box, mint condition $3

Beauty Products:

I was most excited about this Fake Bake! I paid $1 for it after I had ordered some from amazon.com for $25. It works great!!

Clothes for me:

Christmas decor:

Thought this old sled would be a neat item to use with my Christmas decor. I believe it was $1.

What's the best thing you've ever found at a yard sale??
