So here we are tag saling and Im thinking Im getting some good deals, 50c here, 25c there. Then yesterday we go to one and she's selling American Girl doll stuff - dolls and clothes. You wouldnt believe the prices (Im glad I got there 15 minutes early and had first pick). I bought $200-plus worth of clothes for $20! They were selling complete outfits for $3 or $4, some one piece items for $1.... Im thinking - Santa is looking really good this year.

Yeah - I think Im doing great right..... DH looks at this red leather recliner. Sits on it, as a man would, and says gotta have it. He asks and the guy says nonchalantly, $20. Ok - yeah I could do that, its in great condition. We get home and I see its from Pottery Barn... I look online, this $20 chair is selling for, are you ready..... $1999!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd say he is the ultimate tag sale KING!

I thought I got a good deal this weekend but that is a story topper! I bought what amounts to a rubbermaid bin full of Bratz dolls and accessories plus the Polly Pocket roller coaster/hotel for $20. She had more stuff that I should've bought. I was trying not to hoard too much.
