The hubby wanted to come along too, so we had to bring the kids with us. Between the two of us, we managed to score a whole pile of reads (it was $10 for a big red plastic bag which you could fill with as many books as you wanted):
Some were award winners, some were classics, like those by A.A. Milne, and we scored quite a few nice board books for baby J who has earned about a reputation for being a book wrecker. While some were really old or somewhat bashed up, we were pretty pleased with our haul!
There were lots of other things being sold as well, ranging from toys, board games and puzzles, to furniture and clothes. Some of the nearby homes were also having yard sales (and apparently that's where the best buys are), but we didn't manage to check those out. However, we still managed to snag a set of Dinosaur Monopoly and a dino puzzle for Junior J, as well as a lamp-shade for our study. The boys even got toy cars as presents, from one of the mothers who had finished selling off almost all her stuff!
I think we'll definitely be back next year for the sale!
