The Best Thursday Estate Sale

I decided to work a little extra at the beginning of this week so that I could leave early Thursday to hit up the tail end of the first day of an estate sale.  Usually most estate sales around here, I am disappointed with.  We really haven't had a good one in awhile.  We're more into auctions here in Indiana.  Anyway, let's see what I bought...





So, if you're counting... that's 52 Ball pint jars, 12 Ball half gallon jars, 8 crocks, 3 boxes of feather tree ornaments, 2 cameras, 1 Bromwell sifter, and Coda by Led Zeppelin.  I think it was worth it to leave work a little early... don't you?

Now this weekend I'm flying to St. Louis to cheer on my Green Bay Packers.  Maybe I'll get to stop into a thrift store or 2?  Anyways, GO PACK GO!

    Yeah, it was totally worth it to leave work early. That damn job is holding you back anyway! : )
    Look at all those jars? Do you have a count on how many you have?

    Wow, that's amazing! I agree about estate sales in IN -- they leave much to be desired, usually. Great finds!

    Why have a job when there are important sales & auctions to attend? Well, besides for the obvious part about making money needed for the sales and auctions:-)

    Amazing score on the jars! I am assuming you got them for pretty cheap to buy that many. Blue jars around here run around $12.00 just for one!

    Good luck to your Packers!
