yard sale finds

[hoopty388]

not a huge day but I will make my first brag a little one

first stopped at a lions outpost building. found usual junk and some hawiian shirts(I liked them but not for $10 EACH) then I found this:

its not a snap on ratchet but for $.10 I will settle for a dremmel stand. looks alot more handy than the box it came with, that the bits keep falling into the lid

No other sales on the way home (30 mile drive) until right before home I see a sale at the vfw outpost (weird huh?) picked this up:

its a pair or thorsen electricians pliers, ideal wire strippers, and a very neat heavy gauge woods coiled extension cord. for $4

will try again tommorrow, let you know.

I have that and love it. Hang it on the wall and everything's right there in front of you. I'd buy another for a dime.

I've hit quite a few scores at yard sales and flea markets but this is my first brag

I went yard saleing yesterday. Couldn't find anything but a Craftsman air brad nailer for 8 dollars. Got to try it out on site. Not a single hand tool though. Love that cord

Sometimes you eat the bear and somtimes the bear eats you.... Went to an estate sale an hour away Thursday morning. Advertised with pics of a double wide Mac box and huge Snap-on box full of tools. Got there two hours early - after driving an hour - and I was #8 in line. After standing around for two hours I get into the garage and they're not selling any of the tools individually, it's 4K for the entire Snap-on box and another 2K for Mac double-wide box. He said they would be splitting them up by Saturday if they hadn't sold. I went back on the last day, Sunday, today. Arrived 2 hours early again, this tome I'm #1 in line. Finally get inside and it's the same story, not selling individually. I left all pissed off... again.
