What Does $22 Buy?

What does $22 buy?

Well, I could put gas in about half my tank. Fast food lunch for the family (if we are being cheap). A pair of jeans (maybe?).

Or I could go to a church rummage sale and buy the following:
  • 1 pair Levi jeans size 30x32 (David)
  • 1 outfit of capris and shirt to match (Suzy)
  • 1 pink Tshirt (Suzy)
  • 1 pair tan pants with embroidery (Emily)
  • 1 jean skort (Emily)
  • 1 pair tan capris for work (Lisa)
  • 1 pair jean capris for work (Lisa)
  • 2 pair black sandals (Lisa)
  • 1 pair Old Navy sandals (David)
  • 1 pair slippers (Lisa)
  • 3 tshirts (Bob or Lisa)
  • 1 long sleeved shirt (Lisa)
  • 6 books
  • 1 stack American Girl magazines (Emily and Suzy)
  • 1 leather purse (Lisa)
  • misc. notepads and stationery
  • 1 Star Theater planetarium toy - missing a part! darn! (James)
  • 1 small butterfly house
  • 1 bookshelf with 3 shelves (Em & Suzy)
They are having a bag sale on Saturday. Maybe Bob will head over there with the kids. We adore bag sales! Yes, we are thrifty! lolol
