Last Citywide Garage Sale 'til August

Saturday I got up early and headed to Hesston...it was the last citywide garage sale until August so I wanted to savor the moment. Didn't spend much, but found some fun things! Above is a wicker table that I found for my deck ($5) and all of those bright colored citronella candles too! They were only $5 for the set. Don't really know if they will keep the bugs away, but they were colorful so that got my attention. Picked up a fondue pot, wine rack and some cool curtains for my kitchen - resisted the sponge bob inflatable bouncy thing...very proud of myself.

Here is a first - I bought Aidan three Bob the Builder puzzles ($.50) and a Thomas the Tank engine train set ($2) and all of the pieces were there!!! I fully expected some pieces to be missing, but when I got home I put them all together and no missing parts - I was stunned. The Thomas the Tank set even had the directions still in the box. Then I tried to remember this wonderful woman that I bought them from...I wanted to call her and tell her how cool it is that she was able to keep all of the parts together! My obsessive compulsive side wants to ask her for coffee almost as if I crossed paths with my long lost twin or something!!
