OK I go garaging every weekend and do alot of buying on here and it's always for someone in need. I remember being a yound soldier and broke with a child and I was blessed with many good people around me so now it's my turn to return that kindness but anyway here is what happened to me today...

I went to a garage sale that looked wonderful, it actually was and as I was going through the clothes I had people in mind and I was so excited because alot of it was Gymboree and Gap. Now the lady did tell "Things on this table will be alittle more because they are things I really have a hard time parting with." So I figured well ok certaintly not more than $6 and outfit. So I got my stack together to see where I was money wise and when I asked her "Will you take $1.00 for your Gap onsies." and she said "Ummmmm no I really can't." I said well ok then and I then asked Ok so how much are these outfits and she said I will let these go for $15.00 a set" WOW I said in my mind. I was so shocked I was speechless!! I said "you won't go down at all." She said "No I can't because I know if I don't sell them here that kids consignment is coming up and I will make more money there, plus I am having a hard time parting with these outfits." I just don't understand!! I did that consignment a couple years ago and they took 30% of my money and I had to price things at a reasonable price that I know people here would pay and it was hard work to boot! I just thought if you are having a garage sale you are trying to get rid of stuff! This sale had mostly all baby stuff! So I was pretty upset after the shockness wore off. You can find Gymboree on clearance, ebay, facebook Gymboree consignment, Craigslist much cheaper than $15.00 for a shortalls outfit. Ok so I ranted, I feel better and hopefully I will find a better garage sale in OKC tomarrow when I go! I am by far not looking for free stuff but reasonable is what I would say especially since this is my retirement money I put out there to help others!

On the flip side I had a BooKooer that was so very generous that she passed down to me boxes and boxes of clothes when she found out what I do and I turned around that very night and passed down 4 trash bags full of clothes to two different families! Ok off to cook dinner! 

lol ive been to gymboree and gotten clearence clothes for cheaper that were very pretty and still in season when i bought them so 15 is a joke have fun hope u find some great deals 

Ok I knew I wasn't crazy! Well I am a big volunteer at Just Between Friends. I would love to see what she has it priced at! OMG we are not Cali, or New York we just don't pay prices like that as a re-sell here and it's worth the farther South you get lol!! Garaging in ALabama was the bomb!! :-) 

OMG! I thnk if she had that much trouble parting with them, maybe she shouldn't have put them out. You know she won't sell them. ...and she won't ever get $15 an outfit at the consignment either. Wack job! 

Lol, I went to that yard sale too! I went in the afternoon and got a few things for $3-$5 so I guess she realized the wasn't going to sell the stuff for that much and lowered the price :P 

LOL it was the one on Lindy! She may have pulled them out!
