Well you will always have the resale shops to tide you over through the Winter.....

Some of my nicest clothes come from goodwill....

years ago i got a old head vase for 25 cents.. its value is 295.00.. i got an old handmade quilt that someone thought was junk, and it is flawless for $1.00.. i dont do yard sales much anymore, cause people know what price to put on now.

HEY PATRICK!...how are you?

OH OK....my best find was recently but on Craigs list...a brand new bike for my sons bday and only 20dollars! It is really nice and once I cleaned the chrome up it really was brand new!

My son was like....WOW....how much did this cost? Of course I didnt tell him...hee hee!

where is hancock? Not in St Charles by any chance? lol

Well I love stuff animals and I saw this realy cuit kitty it was only 25 cents..It was old and made out of something called mohair..
Found out it was worth over $40.00...

Another time I found at a flea market this realy cool box and inside was few coins..I asked the man how much for the box,he said $1.00..I said i take it and told him there was some change inside..He looked and said you can have it..I thanked him took the box to daddy who collect and sells coins..Well it ended up the 2 dimes and quarter and 3 nickles was worth more than $25.00,I still have the box..

Then there was this big huge old matirle thing with curcis clowns animals and performors on it,the size would cover the whole side of a small 3 bedroom home..That give ya idea how big it was and it was heavy.I got dad and showed him and we got it for $25.00 sold it for $550.00 no kidding..

But the very best thing I ever got at a garage sale was my dog Sky.. He was free and I loved that little guy..He had cancuer years later and had to be put down..But it was the best find at a grage sale I ever got...

I LOVE YARD SALES ALSO. I FIND ALL KINDS OF STUFF. FLORISSANT AND NORTHWOODS WILL HAVE THEIR COMMUNITY SALES AUG.30. THE MOST THAT I'VE FOULD IS A APPLE COLLECTION TO DECORATE A COMPLETE ROOM THAT IS JUST BEAUTIFUL.

If you find LAWN DARTS when at garage sales, then I'll possibly buy them.
