LOL. I'm not sure were the stuff is coming from but they are always big sales. <br />It's funny about the friends thing, my friend and I will ask each other if we want anything BEFORE we have the garage sale and then we just give it to each other if we want it. It evens out in the long run!<br />Love the blue pitcher. That so would have been mine!
