Saturday morning my husband and I spent a “day date” hunting or “picking,” as my husband likes to refer to it, yard sales. Although there were not very many, the hubs and I decided to hit up those sales nearby us for the fun of it and ended up having pretty good luck. My husband has decided that he IS America’s next top picker and had a good time employing the techniques that are used on the American Picker show he loves to watch. For me it provided a good laugh (although I have to admit I was impressed with his new found skills!)
Altogether we spent $11. I have been desperately wanting to read The Hunger Games. So when I saw two of the books in the serious behind a desk at one of the sales I had to ask if they were for sale. They weren’t. However, after telling the girl (who was a fellow UGA alum so obviously awesome) that I had been desperately wanting to read them she happily sold them to me for $0.50 a piece. I was ecstatic. Hey, it’s the little things in life right?
Anyway there they are! The only bad news? I didn’t realize until after I had bought them that I now own the first and the last book in the series so I am going to need to do some searching for the middle book/books. Anyone have them? I am already half way through the first and it’s awesome so I may not have much time. Any-who on to our other finds:
