Today was so much fun. There were quite a few garage sales in McHenry, Crystal Lake and Woodstock that I stopped at. I found 3 great concrete planters and a black wrought iron beverage cart for a total of $30. I was so excited since I have been wanting a beverage cart for a long time now. It is a nice one and I already have many uses for it in mind. I also went to the neighborhood sale in Crystal Lake by the lake. I found some great vintage/some not vintage jewelry pieces at 2 different sales. They were priced from $2-$5. I just love finding jewelry. It made my day! I also found a concrete frog planter ($3) for the garden.
The kids and I stopped at the Grace Lutheran church rummage sale in Woodstock an hour after the sale started. They were pretty cleaned out, but we managed to find a few things. I found 3 vintage linen/doily pieces (the smaller pieces were 10 cents each and the larger one was $1), a wonderful large seashell filled with unique shells for $2, 2 books, a Pokemon stuffed animal and in the FREE box, a troll doll. Another addition to my mother's collection. I just couldn't pass up a FREE item. So, even though you may get to a rummage sale a little late, you can always find a treasure. I seem to.
Tomorrow I will be getting to the Christian Fellowship sale a little late, but I'm not worried. I'm sure I will find a treasure. Caring Traditions is having 2 estate sales tomorrow. One is in McHenry and the other is in Lakewood. Not to mention that there are a lot of garage sales and neighborhood sales. Happy hunting!
