Our street was having a 3 day yard sale, but only my house and 2 others participated. I made some good cash, and my DH wanted to go "look" at what the others had to offer.

I hate when he does this, because we spend what we earned. LOL

The one lady had a table we might like for our living room. The other lady had a French Vanilla stoneware pie plate. Now, if you knew me, and I am sure many of you are the same way, you cannot pass up a deal. Let alone a pampered chef item.

The pie plate must have never been used. The lady knows I sell it, but she got it from my neighbor (who lives across the street and who also sells it). I said to the lady...why are you selling this, she said I dont cook. LOL I said I will save it and give it a good home!

She insisted I take it for FREE but I went back and gave her the $$ she was asking for it, with a mini catalog! It cost me $3!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously the bargin of the century! :love:
 
good for you!! I will be by for a bite later---!

I'm totally searching yard sales for PC items to boost my kit. I got a small barware pan for $1.50 a couple of weeks ago. It looked like it hadn't done anything but sit in her cupboard and collect dust.

LOVE the bargains!
 
Great deal! Congratulations!!!

I still can't believe it...I think my DH is sick of hearing me saying what a great deal it was! LOL
 
well just keep saying it cuz it really is a major deal! :)
 
I am always searching yard sales as well. I by all the Pampered Chef stuff I can find that way no one else is getting it for cheap and they have to go thru a consultant! I got the loaf pan a couple of weeks ago brand new for 1 dollar...

Way to go Christina! Its like giving them a new home...
 
Oh, hey Vanessa - I got your box in the mail Friday - I'll PM you in a bit!
 
What a great deal! I need to check yard sales more often. It is too hard to go with a 3 year old.
 
Way to go!

When I was at the flea market a lot of people had stories about how they bought stoneware cheap at yard sales ... which did not make them want to pay full price for MINE!

One lady had a story that had y'all beat ... she saw a FOOD CHOPPER ... a genuine, Pampered Chef model ... and a price of 50 cents on it.

She balked at it and paid 25 cents.

It works like a dream ...
