Yard Sale season is in full swing and I couldn’t be more excited. While my foot is just now starting to feel a bit better, I’m not doing any long distance walking, but I can hop out of the car for a quick scan over when needed!
This was my sister’s car packed FULL with finds all from just a few different yard sales. You can’t see the backseat, but let’s just say my mom barely had room to sit!
Here are some things I’ve stumbled upon…
A ceramic pot for our garden: $2
Silverware basket that I’ll be re-purposing: $1
Finally, a legit recycling bin: $1
Yes, I did buy this fan. The fan in our bedroom died like two days earlier: $3
Syrup dispenser and other dispenser for olive oil and canola oil: 10 cents and 50 cents
A clear one of these (they’re hard to find!): $1.00
For flowers because it’s so cute: $3
Another clear hanging thing: $1
I’m psyched with all my finds. When I yard sale I don’t buy things just to buy, I make sure I have a use for or needed everything. I’ll share with you how I used these things in the next few weeks! Oh, and another score I found that’s not pictured, a brand new North Face jacket for FIVE BUCKS. That’s like stealing right there.
Have you guys found any fun yard sale items lately?

Enjoyed stumbling upon your blog today (from the WordPress gardening site). I’m very envious of your olive oil dispenser–50 cents is crazy!
I love yard-saleing, too. My best recent find was a push-mower–the old-fashioned kind that works entirely on humanpower, no gasoline–for only 10 bucks! It needs a little rust-remover, but it cuts even now, as long as the grass isn’t too thick. Can’t wait to see what other treasures I happen upon this summer. Looks like your yard-sale season is off to a great start!

Hi Sharon!
Welcome to EO! No joke, I tell my husband all the time that some day when we own a home I’m getting an old push mower just like yours and I’ll mow the lawn. I think he’s holding me to it now :) SUCH good exercise, great for the environment and well it’s just fun! Good luck!
