Garage Sale Steals

I decided to hit up a neighborhood garage sale at a subdivision near ours. Tessa ventured out with me bright and early yesterday morning...and we had a great time! Tessa was an angel at all the houses we visited, quickly finding something to play with or love on (stuffed animals). We got several new toys which you'll see in the second photo, but first I'll highlight her favorite - a MegaBlocks princess wagon, complete with a set of pink, purple, yellow, and light blue blocks, as well as castle accessory blocks and all of the Disney princesses. As soon as I saw it, I knew we were getting it. The little boy next door has a MegaBlocks wagon and Tessa loves to play with them. Much to my surprise, the princess wagon was marked as $1.00, and after that we were off!
Here is all our loot. Little Tikes baby doll high chair, princess wagon, Laugh and Learn Phone, a Little People helicopter, three cars, and a big floor puzzle. In total, I spent a whopping $8.00. It was pretty awesome. I'm looking forward to bargain toy hunting at more.
Perhaps the best thing about it was that she was so excited to have all these new toys that she played totally independently for more than an hour outside on the driveway. New toys are pretty amazing...
