ok i will take the chalange it is going to be hard and will make me think before i spend but i'll try. i do have to admit i bought some new clothes today before i read this i hope that doesn't count.
No way. I don't shop regularly, but there is no way I can pass up $2 Banana Republic slacks at a garage sale.
oh definitely!! i would have had to re think my own challenge for that!
if you think about it, though...garage/yard sale items are really all about recycling...the item has already been made and purchased, so you're just keeping it out of the landfill if you can use it now! :o) Does that help?
