  • Another Nice score for me

    Man do I love the thrift stores! I had a good week.

    First I found a Lodge 12" fry pan. It isn't rusty, but needs to be stripped and reseasoned. Has some stuff burned onto it. 4.99





    Then I found this. I just looked at one. It was 24.99. I paid 4.99.



    Then today, I came across this. I was at Target and looked at the price. 44.99. I paid 8.99. I can't find a mark or chip on it.





    My brother is loving me right now too. He's been laid off now for about 3 months. His 50" TV died a couple weeks ago. Big game coming up, and he was pissed. He's been watching a 20" for now. I know, boohoo.

    Last Tuesday, I stopped into a junk store I've never seen before. Most of it was junk. Except the 36" Sony Trinitron TV/stand, manual and remote for 65.00! I dropped it off at his place Wednesday morning, and he called later to tell me it works perfectly. He said I could watch the game at his place. Beer's on him. I just might take him up on that.

    I can't seem to win the lottery, but I'm lucky in other ways. Lol.

          What can I say? I'm good at finding deals. The whole family asks me to watch for stuff. I have a list in the wallet. No kidding.

                        Lol. Nah, I try to turn it around pretty quick. My job pays the bills, but this is my fun money.

                        Should have seen the time I bought 60 canister sets.

                            My brother has sampled some of the fine Q I've been making lately, and was wanting to give it a try himself. I originally got the ECB from him. I'll be giving it back. I just found this today. Still in the box. 15.00.



                            I just won a 5 lbs. stuffer and a better grinder on ebay too. Will post those after I check them out.
