We were off to estate sales today. We went to four. The first three weren't worth anything. They were really just glorified garage sales. The last one was a jackpot.
We had to wait in line for about 20 minutes before we got in. The owner was a hoarder. The house was so full of stuff that only a few people could get in at a time. We scored a couple of things. Ellen got a new in box easel. I got a couple of miscellaneous tools and a drawer case full of hardware. I got it for about the cost of the empty case.
We stopped at Fry's, but there wasn't anything there that interested us.
When we got home I spent the afternoon going through the case that I bought. It was chock full of screws, nuts, and bolts. All of which needed sorting. There was also a lot of junk like rusted and broken screws that needed to be thrown away. There was even a couple of square nails and an "IKE" pin. The very cool thing was that one of the drawers was filled with drill bits. All in all I was happy with what was in it.
