Yard Sales

I like yard sales. Today we went to a couple yard sales nearby. Sometimes you can find great stuff. Today I scored some Tupperware, a bathroom mat, some plastic thing Anders can ride on the driveway, placemats and some puzzles for the kids. Sometimes the stuff is mostly junk that should be recycled or incinerated. My pet peeve about some yard sales is when people charge a lot of money for their junk. $7 for a cassette tape, $100 for a kid's plastic bed, $50 for an exosaucer. When I do a yard sale, I have no intention of bringing the items back into my house. We'll give it away to unsuspecting kids, drop it off at Goodwill - anything but bring it back into my house.
