Stopped at the Flea Market on my way home and about tripped over my feet when I saw a sign that said "Fill a bag for $1.00)". This guy had a rack of jeans! I started pulling jeans off the rack like a mad women. I was expecting a small plastic grocery bag but instead he gave me a garbage bag!

Next stop was a few tables over and I got a huge jar of old buttons for $1.50!

Another vendor had a box of ties but he was no where to be found. I might go back tomorrow to see how much he wants for them.

I spent $2.50 and I'm one happy camper. Hubby always said I was a cheap date!

cool, go back tomorrow and get more goodies, have fun!

make a quilt out of the jeans

Woohoo!!! You did good.

WOW you are making a jeans quilt then?

Yep, I just finished one in June and plan to do another. I have a few more projects to do before I can get to it. I'm just happy that I have all the material, and it didn't cost hardly anything. :thumbup:

Lucky You :)

CHEAP DATE!!! LOL

my best deal was a small Singer (not featherweight) that I use when I travel. $20. Same seller gave me a complete HC set of Dickens works at the end of the day, that was just as good in a different way.

I laughed at the 'cheap date' part. My DH and I have 'cheap date' days/nights and usually go to the hot dog stand for $1.00 dogs or the music hall for $5.00 to listen and have a dance or two.

Sounds like you will be making jean quilts and alot of them or one big one. Go back and see what else you can get.

Now that is the way to get jeans for your quilt! Di you need help carring the bag back to the car? LOL

What a bunch of great deals!

What a wonderful find. You did great today.
