I heart EUC!

I love garage sales.  I love Goodwill.  I love children's resale shops.  I love buying EUC (Excellent Used Condition) clothes on Ebay.  I love hand me downs.  Why?  Because I get amazing deals on hardly worn clothes.  Because often I will find a bigger size of something that I bought for Halley when she was a baby.  Then instantly they can dress alike and I am only out a small fraction of what I paid originally.  This dress on Lucy?  I bought it new for Halley for her second birthday party.  The dress on Halley?  $1 at a garage sale.  Enough said.  By the way... I love rocking my new (to me) Coach purse at Goodwill as I am scrounging through the racks of randomness!

    You are so funny! Cute picture! I must admit that I have never been much of a garage sale, goodwill kind of girl...BUT I am coming around! I was hoping to hit some garage sales last weekend just for fun, but didn't make it. SO...I think I might try to head out tomorrow! My kids are SO not in need of any clothes, but as I explore my creative side, I am thinking I can SO find some cool photo props or even some "ugly" tables that need refinished?! You just never know!! Thanks for inspiring in ways you don't even realize!!

    I totally agree! For years I was a complete garage sale snob, but I have learned the error of my ways! I think I just like shopping in general, but I ADORE a good deal!:-) Lori

    I love it all! Maybe because I was the oldest and never had the "luxury" of hand me downs. I would have loved that big bag of clothes coming to my house for me to go through. I guess I should ask my younger cousins if they loved it? Gina always gets EUC stuff from ebay and thrifts. It's a great way to save money.
