Art books full of how-to diagrams, $2. |
I took Estate Shopping to a new level this weekend. I spent more than
hour on Friday diagraming out my sale route, with driving directions
and a map to boot. My friend Susie and I left around 8:30 and hit up
about five or six sales.

Box of more than 120 spools of thread for $10. I needed that. |
I managed to enter a family's house, that was
not in fact an estate sale (in my defense, the signs were very
confusing)...still not sure who was more surprised - me or the
8-year-old boy. I almost ran over a man who was stupidly close to a
moving car and gave me the dirty look. We smelled odors on humans we
should never (ever) smell. I discovered some super nice (and not so
nice) neighborhoods to potentially consider for our eventual house hunt.
But best of all, I got great friend time adventuring around curious
scenes for a morning.

Children's and Chanukah books, Boy Scout manuals, Esquire Bartending Guide, $4. |
Oh, and we got some decent deals too! I also managed to get my name on two more Estate Sale Company's mailing list, so I'll be able to keep up my weekend sales attack :)
