Walking to Garage Sales

We have a lot of garage sales in our neighborhood and sometimes I like to put some quarters in my pocket and walk to them on Saturday morning. Here is my haul from this week.     Ike is the first president I remember and I just read his autobiography.  The pink stuff is for my "Brides and Babies" display and the frame is going on the shelf with my mother's day gifts when I get a picture of my daughters and me. All this for $3!
I like this blog: http://apronthriftgirl.typepad.com/apron_thrift_girl.            She buys at garage and estate sales and thrift stores and resells them. You can also post a link on her blog to your thrifty blog, and I love to see what everyone bought.
Got this for .50.
I am becoming a clutter collector since I replaced my piano with a bookcase.
I have found several places to display my clutter in my house and I like to change them on dusting day.

I  am really enjoying displaying my scrapbooks.  I turn the page sometimes when I walk by. I counted scrapbooks last week and I have 118.
