<p>[QUOTE=&quot;evelyb30, post: 565535, member: 36&quot;]I hit the years&#039; first tag sales today.&nbsp; One was advertised in the next town over that turned out to be a hoax - someone was playing nasty games.&nbsp; One was a dry well. They had stuff, but if it was on one table the prices were negotiable.&nbsp; Everything I wanted was overpriced and firm. Bye, folks.&nbsp; Third sale?&nbsp; A free coffee mug ... for someone else.&nbsp; Total spend: whatever I&#039;d spent on gas.&nbsp; Fourth sale....?&nbsp; Jackpot.&nbsp; A flea dealer cleaning out &quot;junk&quot; and selling cheap.</p><p><br /></p><p>I got a stack of postcards including some with nice graphics.&nbsp; An Uncle Wiggily kiddie mug advertising Ovaltine (small cracks, but it&#039;s 100 years old or close), advertising pins from Chevy, a tortoiseshell pin, what&#039;s probably a bag of frankincense, a desk fountain pen with gold nib, and.... a vintage photo of the Bluebird car.&nbsp; It was used to set speed records in Daytona in the 30s.&nbsp; And a coromandel gentleman.&nbsp; It all cost $11.&nbsp; Total.&nbsp; Then I made a pit stop and headed to a sale in another town.&nbsp; Got there, took one look at the steep and long driveway and kept going.&nbsp; Blew $30 in an antique store.&nbsp; The 14k mass-produced hoop earrings in my pile ought to cover $20 of that.(LOL) Told me they were sterling.&nbsp; Oops. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]172315[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]172316[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]172317[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
