Went out Saturday 7/30 on the hunt for a Washer. I found some good things I could use around the house, you know thing you need to buy and do but you just don't get to it. Well this is where Garage sales come in handy. I was finding everything but a Washer. I found(NEW!) Closet cedar storage set $ 1.00,window slide stop lock $0.50,Toilet seat, they ask$5.00 I paid$3.00,Bamboo roman shade$1.00 TOTAL$5.50 asked will you take $5.00 FOR EVERYTHING? YES! Next house I found white window blinds $2.00 ea. called home for measurements, I brought two. No Washer. One more Garage sale sign, my husband said let stop. It was a moving G-SALE so I ask do you have a Washer? The man said" YEAH!" and a Dryer. I only need a Washer, we went back and forth. How much? $150. for both. Do they work? You have to ask and listen to the tone in there voice. OK, so I like what I saw but kept a poker face(because they had to move) and said," YOU TAKE $125. for both"? We had a deal. YES! Can you say MAYTAG! Ooh yeah, I also found a miniature lander and cute little Oriental outfit for my dolls(stormyweatherdolls.com)
I love turning Trash to Treasure so take a ride with me threw one mans trash is another mans treasure. Finding that item at a bargain price. It may take 2,3,10 Garage sales. BUT!! When you find it you'll know you've found that "NEED IN A HAYSTACK"!
