Yard Sales, Flea Markets and Antique Shops 2023

[Aragorn243]

Two small items today, a 1943 German 10 Pfenning coin and a US 1945 MASSILON AL. CO mess kit, one I hadn't had. A third item can be loosely connected in that it is a commemorative souvenir to the cornerstone laying of the Bunker Hill Monument in Boston. I didn't go out early and wishing I did because where I got the coin and Bunker Hill item, they had a table full of little things for a dollar or two each. Hard to tell what they sold before I got there but I rarely find someone selling antiques for low prices like that.

Also got a pair of digital camo combat pants that should fit me for $1. Something from yard sales, flea markets and antique shops today. Mess kit at the antique shop was the most expensive at $6.

$6.00! How can you afford to put gas in the truck shelling out that kind of cash?

But if you had got there earlier you might have seen someone else buying up all the things that you would like just in front of you. It's really annoying when that happens.

That's the pessimists view LOL, I have the optimists view of getting all the good stuff first. It has happened, it is annoying but it's incentive to go earlier.
