 Good morning everyone :)

Hope all is well in your little corner of the world. My little corner is sunny at the moment, but a tad bit cool with thunder storms on the agenda for the 3rd straight day. I really dislike storms, especially here in Ohio as we are prone to tornadoes.

I’m going to treat myself to breakfast this fine morning and go to Goodwill, no garage sales today in our area. I decided not to go to the vintage glassware auction this past Saturday, but am thinking of going to a local estate auction this coming Saturday morning as it’s about 6 miles from me with my favorite auctioneer. Lots of box lots! :)

I will post my weekly update a little later. How are all of you doing with finding good stuff to sale? I see an awful lot of clothes in my area, guess thats why I like the estate auctions better for getting the kind of items I sell. One piece of advice, don’t get too caught up in the excitement and pay too much like I do sometimes. LOL
Have a wonderful day!
Rita

    Hi Diane,
    Hubby took me when we were dating. I learned from him and also from watching. I love going to them. I have always loved old glass, porcelain ect, so its fun time when I get to go. :)
    How’s it going for you? I haven’t heard from you in awhile, hope you are ok?

    Hi, Rita,
    Check your spam folder maybe? I emailed you a few days ago but haven’t heard back from you. :) I have been “shopping” in my own garage and have listed and sold quite a few things out of my Ebay store this past week. I did go to the Goodwill last week and picked up 3 clothing items that I’m going to try my hand at this week, first time I’ve ever tried clothing.
