I WANT GARAGE SALE SEASON TO COME!!

[CindyChapman]

I am so sick of this weather and I want to start garage saling! I did go to one last week -- and it was snowing! I think garage sales are one of my favorite things...along with auctions, estate sales and flea markets. Please mother nature -- start cooperating!!

[bumblebee23]

I saw a few garage sales last week and I thought it was so weird because it was so cold and flurries where flying. I have never been to a flea market and really really want to go to one!

I'd really like to hit some flea markets this summer. Do you know where there are any?

[bunsy]

I'd like to have grass.

[lilmermaid]

I like to garage sale season too!

[bunsy]

Sadly, I love garage sale season as well. Even more sadly, there is nothing I NEED from a garage sale except maybe books. But I still crave garage sales even though I don't want any more stuff in my house.

I have been dying for garage sale season too. We all need new clothes...bigger sizes for me (boo hoo), smaller sizes for DH (yeah for him!) and both boys need new summer clothes too. I've been thinking about having my own garage sale too this summer to get rid of baby stuff, but that means I need to decide if we're really done having kids or not.

[megan1201]

I'm anxious for garage sales to start too! Both the kids need new summer clothes and I could use a few things for our new house since we move in two weeks!

[bumblebee23]

When I need clothes for the boys I check out the Thrift stores. I am getting better at knowing which ones I will find a decent selection at. They both grow like weeds and jeans never last that long so I hate to buy them brand new. I have been finding some pretty decent finds there.

I guess that's why I don't crave garage sales to much cause we go to the thrift store all the time and it is fun to see what I can find. I actually haven't been to any garage sales in a long time and would love to go this year!
