Saturday, we went to a church-sponsored garage sale and filled a paper grocery bag for $5.

I got:

2 toddler knit caps
2 toddler sweat suits (1 with tags still attached)
pair of toddler sandals
striped toddler t-shirt
adorable toddler sweater
long sleeved red flannel shirt for toddler
cute infant romper with dog print
perfect condition infant Tommy Hilfiger romper

Plus, my teenager got an adorable denim ruffled skirt and a black eyelet short-sleeved shirt and I got a tee-shirt. For $5!
