garage saleing
hit the garage sales hard today and spent about $70. i got...
a large rice steamer for $1
a black down vest for $1
a cake platter with lid
a sewing machine for $5
a few books
a decorative hanging shelf from the 40s for $10
a pewter plate and 3 pairs of pewter gobblets for $30
man i feel like i scored. the pewter set isnt exactly matching - each of a pair of gobblets match, but the three pair dont match each other. no bother - theyre pewter. i was able to talk the guy down from $40 to $30 for the set - they were all individually marked. i am starting a semi-serious collection for pewter. ebay anyone?
the other thing i got from the days worth of yard sale hopping is a nasty sunburn. i did all of the driving for the group, and my entire left arm, left shoulder, and the top of my left breast is all crispy. lovely. at least my sun allergy didnt break out.
