What a bargain!!!!





Sometimes you get lucky and find a bargain. Sometimes you search and search and don't find one. Today was definetly bargain Saturday for us. I have been searching garage sale after garage sale for a kitchen for Annabel. I even had one saved in a shopping cart on the Walmart website. But I just wasn't going to spend hundreds of dollars for a play kitchen. Especially when we live in a town that has major garage sales this time of year. Well today I just happened to stop by the thrift store. I have not been there in months. As I walked up to the door my eyes about bugged out of my head. The EXACT kitchen I had saved on my shopping cart was there. And guess how much they wanted for it???? $14.99 Yes I said only $14.99 Oh my goodness. They might as well have been giving it away at that price. It is brand new, in excellent condition and even came with two big bags of accessories. I didn't even stop to check it all out as there was a woman coming up behind me from the parking lot and I could see she had her eye on it as well. I went straight up to the counter and said "I will take the kitchen" and pulled out my debit card. Don't worry, I wasn't rude or anything. I didn't run or knock anyone down or anything like that. That wouldn't be very nice. Annabel is having the time of her life playing with it. Last week I found a play baby doll station with bed, swing, carseat, bath and highchair all in one for just $10 at a garage sale. Annabels play area is now complete. I guess in a few months we will have to look at some more masculine toys. Otherwise Jacob will become a very domesticated young man. haha I prayed God would find me a kitchen and He did. Thank you Lord for answering even the most smallest of our prayers.
