My favorite day of the week...

I figured I would update this post since today is GARAGE SALE DAY. One of my favorite days of the week. First, all my cards have sold. I had gotten some in on a trade, but they are gone already too. So, this thread is now card free ... which will probably only last for a few days, I'd imagine. Here is the "stuff" I picked up today at the garage sale.

First, this beauty. Note the uber serious gangsta look I'm sporting. Yes, I take my doll buying/selling seriously. (Actually, this is going to my dad to have him sell.)


HUGE Step 2 toybox - $10


Man with EPIC beard that I tried to covertly take a pic of. You will note he is looking right at me. Note to self: If taking a covert picture, TURN THE FREAKING FLASH OFF #spyfail


Step 2 somethingeruther - $10


Very nice ottoman - $25 (wife is claiming this for now)


Our favorite pickup of the day - a Wii for $30! (It came with a wii fit pad, but we later found another wii fit pad complete with everything else for $10) - We are keeping the wii for sure!


Gamecube for $2 BWAHAHAH


sesame street storage bin system $4


Air Jordans! $5


Bumbo $5


Printer w/extra ink $20 (I may keep this so my expensive equipment won't get used unless making my customs ... this can be me "for everything else" work horse)


Gorgeous circular chinese wall art $8


baby gate $1


glass top wicker basket $5


cubby system $10


2 very nice comic book display pieces $10 (keeping these for now)


Chipotle lunch for a job well done.


One other note of interest: At one garage sale, a woman in her 70's (about 5 ft tall) - I caught her staring at me. She then said "big truck".

"Pardon, ma'am?"

"Oh! I just said that sounded like a big truck!"

Then she followed up with "How tall are you?" It was almost a panicked question. I told her 6'1 and she went on and on about this other guy she knew who was 6'1 and they took a picture together to show how different they were in size. She proceeded to stand next to me almost as if we were about to take a picture.

I wish we had.

Anyway, She yelled over to a younger guy in her garage: "6-1!!!!"

He said "huh?"

She pointed to me "He is 6-1".

"What is that supposed to mean?"

She responded "He is 6 feet one inch tall!!!"

He said "Ohhh, ohhh...kkkkaaaaayyy." Then walked in. At that point, I had to make a fast break for the minivan,, for fear of dying laughing in front of her.
