Hi it’s just Amour here for this post – I went “garage sale hopping” with my little sister Jade. What is that you ask? Well we do a little online research and find a cluster of garage sales to hop around to. We plan our day, pack our wallets with small change and arm ourselves with bottles of water. Then we’re off!

Garage Sale Hopping

So today’s adventures took us to Epping, Turramurra and Wahroonga. All of these suburbs are in NSW Australia where we live. We had two to go to in Turramurra and one in each of the other suburbs.

Now here they are in pictures – Grab a cuppa, this post is picture heavy! We don’t have a picture of the first one in Epping – we were there for less than 5 minutes and didn’t get a thing aka it kinda sucked – the rest were great 🙂

Hop #4

Now for the fun stuff – my purchases…

Pretty pink metal coasters…

Teacup set…

Gorgeous yellow purse…

Lots of singlets/tank tops…

Pretty plate sets…

Chinese red pajama set…

Nude flats…

Brand new bag organiser…

Orange tweed shift dress…

I also got a book on sewing and a styrofoam head. All in all I spent $12 for all of it – I think that’s great! What do you think?

My favourite buy today was the yellow purse. Jade is a freak for anything yellow, so I’m going to restyle it into something unique and just for her.

Tomorrow morning we are going to the Blacktown Markets – It is on every Sunday at the drive-in theatre. We used to go there heaps as kids and this will be our first time back as adults. We are super excited!!!

On that note – I better get to bed – gotta get up in a few hours and hopefully find me some more treasures 🙂
