Most dollar stores have the gift bags and they usually have a name tag on them. Only cost a dollar!
Yep, I've started using more and more gift bags from the dollar store. They can be reused several times. All you have to do is cut off the tag with who's ever name was on it and make a new one.

One time I found a bag with 20 various gift bags for $1 at a yard sale. You could tell they had only been used once.

I am so bummed that I missed a freebie today. Our local online garage sale group has some good bargains and freebies from time to time. Of course the free stuff goes quick. Today someone was giving away 3 unopened bags of potting soil, some pots, and other stuff. Couldn't get a hold of my friend so that she could go pick it up for me. I'm sure it was gone withing 30 minutes. :(

Sunday My nephew helped me clean out garden shed I put 2 pairs of ski at curb. I have no idea where they came from.

You could use them for a chair!

Mary, just remind yourself that the potting soil was probably the cheap yucky kind that no decent plant would be caught dead in.
That's right so lucky! Thank you for making me feel better. :) Though the bags were turned around, they looked like Miracle Grow :(. Stop thinking about it....:th
