Use paper drop cloth to wrap. If you get newspapers, use newsprint with bright colored ribbon or bows. If you are like me, you have old material or clothing that is no longer loved or needed. Shop garage sales and thrift stores and estate sales. Use paper from other sources. Use old, unwanted material.

We shopped at garage sales, turned down the heat, combined errands to use less gas, didn’t buy a lot of prepared food, cooked at home and the like. We mowed the grass, made our clothes, cleaned house, cooked , and fixed broken stuff. We didn’t have a clothes dryer. Peggy: Well, we did everything ourselves.

I love going to them and I love having yard sales. If I have a free Saturday morning from April thru September--unfortunately it''s rare--I try to hit a community yard sale. I''m always looking for girls clothing, good books, and clean Tupperware. Every year, we participate in our community''s yard sale. Advertise Online.
