Thrifty Thursday: Mollies New Toy Box. Hello friends. So how are you today? On Sunday my husband has a rare day off work. So what to do on a lazy sunny morning, when the shops are not open?
We decided to go and visit our local car boot sale.
Thrifty Thursday: Mollies New Toy Box:
So, I have been asking him for a while to take me as I wanted to buy Mollie one of those cute little kids pop up tunnels. I fancy my hand at a spot of sheepdog agility training!
I thought I might be able to pick a few good things up from the boot sale and cheaper than the shops.
First stall I came to had this medium round bag for sale, that just looked like the shape of a tunnel inside.
“How much is this?!” I asked
“What is it?” She replied?
I looked puzzled, thinking well it is you who is selling it!!
“Oh I know; it’s one of those tunnel things, £2.00” she replied
Perfect I thought, paid her and walked off. What a bargain I boosted to the hubby, no need to look any more!
When we got home, hubby rushed outside to show Mollie what I had brought her.
What is this he shouted?
I got outside to find out it was not a tunnel what I was told it was…
It was a ball pool pit!!
Oh well, Mollie loved it and it Keeps all her toys tidy on the garden!!

My eldest son hates it though.
“I will pay you £2.00 to chuck it” he told me, haha.

Looks a perfect idea to me 🙂 You're so lucky Mollie's not a demented chewer, Stella would have ripped it to shreds in seconds! #pocolo
