2 hours of shopping for baby gear = $170
The Rush from a good Garage Sale = Priceless
Can you believe I got all this stuff for $170? I'd say retail was well >$1,000. If only I had a bigger car, I could've continued to shop. I will be sure to highlight Landon's wardrobe in the upcoming posts to the blog.
I hit the mother load! Three houses in a row with all boys, selling their clothes, shoes, toys and books. I would just give the ladies like $50 and buy EVERYTHING off her. I got two whole boxes of books for $5! I got Crocs for $2 each!
For me, my favorite part is putting together Landon's preppy wardrobe and this way I can afford it. He's all set for clothes until he's 3! The next best thing is knowing that it's better for the environment for me to "recycle" these clothes than go out and buy new ones. Finally, as a family, we've started a charity we call "Babies and Beyond." Since I have been getting more than Landon needs, I send them to my mom and she donates the clothes to families from the daycare that are in need. Becky and Amanda are doing the same and it's become a family project that we love.
