Finders keepers

Mark and I have been very fortunate to find some real treasures at garage sales around Madison, now that summer is upon us, we have been eager to hit the garage sales around the neighborhoods. This time we found a whole neighborhood organizing a garage sale this weekend and found a real treasure at one. Mark and I are going to Germany in August and have been looking for a smart backpack to carry all our "stuff" around in comfortably- unfortunately these packs can run between $100-300. Today we found one for me for only $40 (according to the internet, it is regularly $240). Needless to say it made my day. As we were traveling back to our apartment via the back roads, we found a golden key sale (where everything that relatives don't want gets sold) and we found a beautiful match to Mark's gram's hourdourve glasses and tray set. Gram's collection only had the plates, but now we added a set of glasses to the collection. Great finds!!
