Do you love going to garage sales? We often see garage sales in our area especially during weekends. Last Saturday, one of our neighbors hosted one. Since they live a stone throw away from our house, we decided to check it out.
If you haven’t been to a garage sale yet, let me tell you that you can really get some of the items cheap. I used to think that these are just folks selling their old clothes and stuff but came to realize that some people just sell stuffs that they don’t need, period. You can find unused, unopened, or very slightly used items that they look like brand new in garage sales. I actually didn’t expect to see some unopened cross stitch and needle crafts kits among the items being sold.
Take a look at these items that I bought for a steal!
I bought all of these for just $1.00 (a quarter apiece). Each set already has the threads, cloth and needle needed to complete the project. It came in its original packaging too – unopened!
I’m just so excited with these goodies that I got for an awesome bargain. I actually wanted to buy some cross stitch kits for some time now because it’s one of the activities that I want to do to keep me busy at home but, what can I do, I am a procrastinator. 🙂
Anyway, I think that the cross-stitch kit above is a wonderful garage sale find. Do you agree?
Thats a great find she, ako din I love garage sale. few months ago I bought tons of stuff from a garage sale furniture and decorative pati weighing scale na $1 pinatulan ko heheh
that’s true sis. every weekend, we drive around to check out different garage and yard sales near our house. i’m particularly interested in books which you can get for a quarter apiece…
Great buy. Just $1? It’s been how many years since I last made a cross stitch project. It is a really great way to spend time doing something creative. Maybe one of these days, I can do another one. I think I still have one cross stitch kit that I haven’t touched. Have a great weekend.
yes chin, just $1. unbelievable, right? what a great find….
Please reserve 1 for me hehehe
nyeee… bakal kaw na lang jan mama… mahal mahal tana rija ang cross stitch… actually kublan style ja pero daw mga two bondpapers lang kalapad…
Wow, super duper mura yan sis unbelievable talaga for $1 kasi super mahal dito sa pnas to make 1 lang ha. Gagastos ka talaga.
Great bargain! Pero syempre, you have to actually do it ha para hindi pa rin masayang ang $1 🙂 Nakakamiss din mag cross stitch at crochet. Someday magpproject din uli ako.
wow, that is indeed a great find! i love garage sales too. i bought a sewing machine (can be manual or electric) for only P1500! sarap ng feeling no?
