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

Rescheduled, Reminded, Rewinded

Oh, I know what I forgot to say earlier. The lawyer DIDN'T view the video on the scheduled day. It was, yep, RE-scheduled. @@ It is supposed to happen at the end of the month. Hey, that's THIS WEEK.

The court date - a real one - is set for April 9th.

Also, yesterday, on our way out of town, I saw a sign for a rummage sale that was on RIGHT NOW. I had known about it before but had forgotten it was yesterday. There was about half an hour left for the sale, so we did an about-face and headed over to it. Emily got some Ellos and some Click-its, which she is enjoying. James got a Milennium Falcon 3D puzzle. V. cool. I think David is "helping" put it together. Got some books and a few clothes. Best part? It was $1 a bag!

Kids are watching Popular Mechanics for Kids - a DVD we interloaned from the library. I highly recommend it - it's a series with 4 episodes per DVD.
