Have you found anything great?

I found a Pink Bebe Pod chair brand new in the box for $7 at a thrift store. I'm going to include it in a shower gift for a friend.

A really cute black and white sundress with a cross-over front perfect for nursing for $1 for me.

A rashguard for DS for $1.21. A cute gymboree sunhat for DF's baby girl for 50cent (she was specifically looking for one).

A Hanna Andersson playdress for $1 for a friend's baby. It had a few light bleach stains but the fabric really hid it well and for $1 I still couldn't pass it up.

Today at my goodwill I found MATCHING tunic tanks for the girls for $1.80 each (they were even half price!)

A gorgeous glass citrus squeeze-y thingy, the kind you see at antique stores. $2.

A glass suntea pitcher with a dispenser on clearance at Kroger for $2.99! I had been searching for glass and was having a hard time finding one.

Supplies for the girls' lemonade stand at Target for half off.

I found a bunch of awesome kid's books at a thrift store, including about a dozen BOB books which I was wanting for homeschooling. Also some like new board books for DS, which is great since we have almost none. The sign said large books 50 cent, medium books 25 cent and small 10 cent. The lady who rang me up gave almost all of them to me for a dime each, even the biggish ones!

And, my crowning achievement and certainly one of my best deals yet for 2012: This snap 'n go stroller (http://www.target.com/p/baby-trend-snap-n-go-single-stroller/-/A-11872528?ref=tgt_adv_XSG10001&AFID=Google_PLA_df&LNM=%7C11872528&CPNG=baby&ci_sku=11872528&ci_gpa=pla&ci_kw=)at Target for $3.16. That's right, $3.16!!!

ETA: This looks like an excessive amount of shopping for one week, and I tend to agree. I should clarify that I visited my parents last week so I had extra time for shopping and hitting thrift stores and yard sales is one of our favorite things to do together as a family (my mom, my sister, the girls and I). Also the girls are in VBS this week so I have hit a couple more thrift stores here at home.

We went to a garage sale this past weekend, but I'll put my finds here.

8 Gameboy Advance games for $.50 each. These are put away for our upcoming 750 mile car trip. They work in DD and DS1's Nintendos.

Bags of Our Generation clothes and accessories for American Girl dolls at $2 each. DD hoped to get something with pom poms and there was a cheerleader outfit. She got 3 more outfits and a bag of shoes. We picked up some for my niece, too.

Our Generation scooter for American Girl doll for $2. This is hidden away for DD for Christmas.

A beach blanket from Target - I've bought it 4 times now and got it down to 70% off, or $5.40. I started at $15 10 days ago :)

I'm still impressed you managed to do all that thrifting with a new baby! Nice finds!

I'm not a bargain hunter but got some deals today when I stumbled on the Target 90% summer sale. I got
15 paper decorative lanterns at $.35 each
1 cute bowl that I've eyed for $.59
2 water shooters for $.79 each
1 strand patio decorative lights for $1.28

I saved $88.94 and, while they were impulse buys, they are all things I'm glad to add to my ranks. :)

Wow, on that snap and go!

The best deal I got was I went to the thrift store and was able to snag the next cub scout uniform shirt up for DS1 for only 99 cents!
