This past weekend the hubs and I went to a few yard sales/estate sales before heading over to a quilting/sewing supplies sale. I'm happy to report we got a few great finds! At 1 sale they had a big box of Legos (in original box). They are Harry Potter's castle! I got the set for $15!!! It's supposed to have over 900 pieces....for $15!!!! I went online and this set sells for anywhere from $175 to $1500 (new and unopened). Here's a few pics of our find:
The grandsons played with the set after we got home and 1 of them decided to take the big chunks of pieces apart (ok so he smashed them with a Joker toy). Anyway, I decided to try my hand at putting it all together this week. The last pic is how far I got last night. Did I mention there are over 900 pieces??? I figure I can probably have it done in about a week of evenings and they better not take it apart again!!! Oh and I better be their favorite Nana too!
We also found a vintage portable sewing table for $15! Again, I went online and found that one just like it sold a couple of years ago on eBay for $235!!! Score for me!!!! Here is a pic of the 1 that sold:
I'm going to clean mine up and take it to the 5th wheel in a couple of weeks.
We also found a couple of dolls that are similar to this one:
I found some Sakura Mary Englebreit plates like these (no box). I got the set of 4 for $2! They are selling online for around $40 with the box. I'll take $2 and no box...thank you very much! We also got a few other things but these were my biggest finds...I wonder what next weekend will bring!
