Time to Consign

Y'all know I love a good deal in any form whether it's a yard sale, goodwill, or a consignment sale. Needless to say I was excited to find out that our little town holds it's own Just Between Friends consignment sale during the fall. It took place this weekend and I registered to shop early, on Friday night, as a first time parent. I took my friend Sonja with me and we both did pretty well! It wasn't the biggest consignment sale I've been to but I managed to find a few things I was looking for.
 
 
Here's the breakdown of the goods...
 
- 5 pairs of 12 month zip up jammies $3 each
- Silly Goose Smocked Christmas outfit $12
- Melissa and Doug puzzle $5
- Playskool flowerpot ball toy $3
- Little Einstein ABC book .50 cents
- Pink pig toy $2
- Rocking Horse $13
 
I spent $50 almost exactly. I was pretty excited about spending that much for all that I got! If you couldn't tell I'm planning for Christmas. I have been looking for a cute little rocking horse and this one is perfect. Can you not already picture it under the tree? Also, I was kind of nervous she wouldn't like it so I put her on it before we checked out and let me tell you, girlfriend went NUTS. As a baby I loved my bouncy horse so when I told my mom that she loved it she said, "of course she did!" I can't wait to see her on it again Christmas morning! I also let her play with the flower ball toy and she LOVED that. This afternoon after I sanitized it she played with it for almost half an hour straight! After she went to sleep tonight I hid it and I'm thinking of giving it to her for her birthday since she loved it so much.
 
Today was the first Saturday in a long time that I didn't go out yard sale-ing but I think I'm okay with it because I got some pretty good deals last night!

Looks like you found some really great deals. I too didn't hit the yard sales today and I missed them terribly.

You always find some great stuff. My girls have a rocking horse and at 3 & almost 2 they still love it.
