Garage Sale Find!

I had an excellent find at a garage sale two weeks ago, I've just been so busy I haven't been able to blog about it.

It was the weekend that Elise came to stay with us so I dragged her and Jared out to some garage sales with me since my Mom had other obligations on Sat morning. Neither one of them wanted to go. . .but

Look what we found!


Jared and I really don't have any storage in the house, so I figured this would work great as storage or a work bench for Jared. The best part is how much we paid, only $15 bucks for the cabinet and counter top (they were asking 20 for both, but every seasoned garage saler knows you NEVER pay the sticker price, especially when it's the last day of the sale. heh). The people at the sale were super nice and even threw in a finishing kit for the sides of the counter top for free, AND offered to deliver it to our house free of charge. We had brought my parents Saturn Vue with us so we didn't have to take them up on it, but what nice people! To top it off Elise also found a pair of $50 dollar shoes (that looked like they may have only been worn once) and paid only $1.50. So now Jared and Elise can't make fun of garage sales, because clearly they are awesome. It's so fun finding deals.
