Top Ten Garage Sale Finds in 2009
(in no particular order)
1. Concrete flower pots: $2 each and now on the back patio
2. Entry table (actually a desk) with faux copper finish: $40
3. Camel center piece: $5, faux burnished finish.
4. Las Vegas man's personal CD collection: $25. Almost 200 cds, we had to buy a small suitcase to get them home (which we bought at another garage sale that day) and we're still selling them off.
5. Gaming chairs $10 each for the boys. Speakers, vibrations: they rock - literally and figuratively.
6. Dog sweater: $4. Kitschy, clever, almost $200 new. (And the recent Rick Steves' Italy DVD and book set from the same sale just sold on Amazon for an $18 profit which helps cover the cost.)
7. Long sleeve black Lacoste shirt: $5.
8. Tiffany trinket jar from a Calif garage sale, not so attractive, but such a deal and it's Tiffany! 38 cents!!
9. Britta Water Filter, the large size. It was from a church sale. I might have paid $3 or $4 for it. We use it everyday and it has paid for itself many times over because now we don't have to buy bottled water.
10. All the DVDs and CDs we bought and resold. On Half and Amazon I made over $2,500.
