My man is a yard sale snob. I was never much into buying other people’s “junk”, until I met him and discovered the practically unused treasures that people were almost GIVING away. Now we go yard saling (sailing?) all the time. In fact, it has become one of our favorite things to do together. He’s Southern. Very Southern. And has never met a stranger. For him yard sales help him connect with neighbors and friends… and get a bargain. I’m not nearly as outgoing and friendly, so I like going with J. That way I don’t have to say much… I can just browse for deals! And on Saturday I found some KILLER deals!!!

I found 150 slightly used wedding bubbles for $1! Yay! I haven’t really decided if we’ll be one of those “bubbly” couples… but for a dollar it was worth having the option!

I also found a pair of wedding shoes at the same yard sale.  They were worn once by a MoB.  They’re Kenneth Cole, with rhinestone straps.  $60 originally.  And, delightfully, they only have a slight kitten heel.  I LOVE high high high heels. But I hate being taller than my man.  And can’t imagine towering over him on our wedding day.  They are a just a tad tight across my toes.  But I figured they’d either stretch out, or I’d give them to MY MoB, who has more dainty feet than I!  Due to J’s expert haggling I got them for $7!  Much more logical than the $900 Christian Louboutin bridal shoes that I’ve been lusting over!  I mean, who even sees your feet!?!?
