Thrift Saling

Thrift saling is one of my favorite things to do during the summer. I don't do it often enough, but buying things for a less than $5 is the best, and soooo much fun. The best buys at thrift sales are usually baby clothes, so it's always fun when a friend/relative has a little one of the way cuz you can stock them up on the cutest outfits ever. My favorite finds for me are cute printed tops, ones with fun sayings, or else sports tshirts with numbers on the back. My all time fave shirt is a navy blue "Maple Grove Soccer" tshirt with #9 on the back. I bought it at Savers (the next best thing to a thrift sale) LOVE IT!

Anyways, I am discussing thrift sales because my family is having one this weekend. I'm venturing up to Hickville, WI and having a thrift sale with the rest of the town. They always have one the weekend of Prom and the weekend of Homecoming.... this weekend just happens to be Homecoming. I hear our football team is really good - they won 81-0 the other weekend - Crazy! I'm excited to make some money on the clothes that I never wear anymore (and probably paid too much for them in the first place). Isn't it crazy how you see something you just have to buy, but can never find the right time to wear it. Every time I clean out my closet for things like this, I find myself having a hard time parting with things I hardly wear. What's up with that? I kid myself I might wear it again, soon, but that never happens, and then I end up with shirts in my closet that are from my senior year of high school....

Which leads me to what else I'm doing this weekend - It's my FIVE YEAR CLASS REUNION! When in the world did I get so old.... yet it seems like high school was soooo long ago. Craziness. So it shall be a fun filled weekend with selling my old clothes and drinking with kids I never get to see anymore.

Okay I feel really old. I was reading your post and thought "five year reunion?? I thought I was older than you." Then I remembered it was my TEN year reunion coming up. Oops!!
