Morgan and I went out today bright and early and hit a super sweet estate sale. I spent 23 dollars, and got quite the loot. The best part about the entire trip: I walked out of the estate sale without paying. We drove for about 20 minutes, went to two other sales before I realized that I didn't pay. When we drove back to the original sale, the lady hadn't even realized that I didn't pay.
We took our two three year olds and they were marvelously well behaved. I love being able to placate a child with a 50 cent toy.
We got some great "crap". The house was packed to the brim (always a good sign of an awesome estate sale) and run by two sisters who had decided to run the estate sale on their own. Their mother had passed and they decided to run the entire sale on their own after the previous company that they were working with had botched everything up.
I found this great popcorn bowl set from the seventies. One large popcorn bowl with four smaller bowls on the inside. If we can't sell this on etsy, Sarah wants to keep it for the house.
I liked this vintage set of two decks of cards and the plastic thingy that helps you remember who delt the cards last. It moves back and forth like one of those weeble wobble people.
One of the coolest things I've ever seen at an estate sale: A big bowl of vintage matches. Morgan and I spotted it at the same time so we're gonna split them.
And finally, here's a shot of all my finds put together.
