I have mentioned before that my mom just opened a new preschool- today and yesterday we went yard sale shopping to see what we could find!! We only spent $60 and filled up the car completely- to the point where we were putting things in the windows b/c the doors would no longer open without things falling out!!
These toys range from 1960's-2000's

This is one of those big outdoor playsets with a slide- we had to take it apart to get it to fit and then cleaned it when we got home.

We also bought the desk yesterday (2 of them total)- for stations for the kids!!

There is one of these at the school that of course they fight over so it was great to get another!!

Wait - ALL of that was just $60?!?!
-
YES!!!! EVERY item in ALL pictures well wait except the 2 desks- they were $10 total so I guess all in all we spent $70!!!! We were shocked at the prices and we had fun haggling!! Often times we would put a bunch of items in a box and said we would give the people x amount for the whole box!!! So yea that was all!!! Talk about AMAZING DEALS!! At least I think so lol

Yeah, that's awesome! All that people seem to sell around here is clothes. ;)

Nice find it is getting harder to find toys around where I live any more. I think yard sales are done here till the spring .

Thanks!! It's funny- over the weekend there were like 15 different sales- I thought they would have been done as well but we hit the mother load- there was a community sale about 45 min away from our house and it included over 20 houses!! We went a little crazy!! Mysstice- sorry about the clothes!! That stinks!

OH MY GOD, HOW MUCH WAS THE COSY COOPAY? We had one when we were kids, and my cousin's still have theirs but ours has gone. I'd love to have one again, but I have no idea what I'd do with it.
