Today was shopping day. Shopping always makes for a good day.
It would have been even more special if I was shopping for myself. Perhaps next time. But the deals I got made up for it!
I know I've blogged about the resale event I participate in before, but here's a recap in case you're new.
Twice a year there's a HUGE resale event in my area. It's all kids stuff and you name it, you can probably find it there. I consign so I make money and get rid of stuff. I also volunteer which increases my payout by 10%.
Back to my deals~ Consignors can shop before the public and volunteers can shop even earlier. Score! Today was my day to shop. I don't go all crazy. I usually buy only what the kids need, and maybe an extra item or 2. GG was the one who lucked out with the extra items today. I found her a pair of black high top shoes with peace signs on them. Not only did they scream her name but they were from Justice. If you have a daughter, you may understand her addiction to that store.
To go along with the high tops, I found something to please my
O-M-G!!! Pink cowgirl boots! Cute and cheap. How can you go wrong with that?!
They looked like they were barely worn, but there were a few scuff marks on them. For future reference, non-acetone nail polish remover takes those marks off in seconds!
Brand new in a matter of minutes.
She strutted about in those beauties all night!
Maybe I can convince her to be a cowgirl for Halloween? She has her heart on something scary, but maybe we can work out a deal.
Until next time....

I was looking for something specific yesterday as I stopped by a few garage sales. Didn't find what I was looking for, but I managed to come upon a huge girls clothing yard sale. The clothes were really out dated, I couldn't find anything classic until I got to the shoes. I found 4 pairs of dress shoes that had never been worn $1/pr. Two fit now (13 1/2) and two for later (2). She was most excited about the red dress I got her (reds her favorite color).
We have two churches doing these type of sales. Well, one it is a sale, the other it's a clothing giveaway(huge though).
Look at her posing! So cute!!! A cowgirl would be a great costume!
How exciting!! We have the same thing in our area-but it hasn't happened yet this month! That reminds me that I need to tag my stuff!
Wow, those boots are pretty ;)
Oh, those boots are just TOO cute! You gotta love the consignment sales. We just had a pretty major one here in the town I live in, and I also bought a pair of cowboy boots. The pair I bought were for my baby boy...who is 5 months old, lol. He wont be able to fit into them for a couple of years...but I just couldn't resist, and the price was right!
