You have to look and ask [View all]
Went out this morning to the sales. Gone for 2 hrs and made more in those 2 hrs than I'd make in 3 days at my old part time job.
1st stop, an hour before they were to open and got a beautiful flat top trunk with liner shelf and all the hardware and leather for $35.
2nd stop, a half hour before they were to open. Very high prices, for me. They also had a trunk like the one I just bought for $75 and I didn't buy it, but I did look inside and found a nice wool blanket. What da ya want for this, says. She says a couple of bucks and I jumped on it.

exactly like this one and still had the Penneys tag for $150 on the bag it was in.
Last stop. Found an old, very nice bike horn for half a dollar. Was looking for one for my 1950s scooter I just restored. The I ask "got any old instruments" she says yes but it's not for sale. I say "what is it and what's your not for sale price". She went in and brought out a 1958 Silverton arch top guitar in great condition in a nice Gibson case. She said what would I pay and I said $75. She said "no no" I say $100 and she says yes. This looks like the very one I got.
