My friend Kathy from Connecticut has been visiting me here in Ocala. We have been doing some serious thrift shopping. We started at the Hospice Thrift Store and I found a really nice pink jacket for $2.50. We then went to another...

We have a local thrift store/food pantry that gets the best donations of items! Designer bags, which need a close inspection, really nice bakeware and dishes. I personally have enough at home but like to look for a treasure just...

DudeBaker @infatuatedbby If you're talking about Goodwill or Salvation Army, there isn't really any 'rules' to tell them how to price things. Some stores have more savvy pricing personnel, and those are the stores where you'll find the higher prices. It really comes...

DudeBaker @Rondout50 exactly. The reward has to be worth the effort. Once it becomes a 'job,' it isn't fun any more. Life is meant to be enjoyed, why do something that you don't enjoy?

I am interested in distilling herbs to make essential oils. I know that I need to build a still to do so, but I havent been able to find a comprehensive list of the components needed. Are there any MyLotters out there that might...

DudeBaker I've found a few stills for sale online, but none of them seem to be quite right for making essential oil extracts. Looking strictly at new items (no used), it looks like I'll have to spend somewhere in the neighborhood of $150 to get everything I need.

DudeBaker I used to be pretty heavy into the thrift store flip game, but it's very labor intensive. I've cut back a lot to focus on other things. If you have the time to invest into hunting the valuable items and listing them online, it's a pretty good source of extra...

Throughout 10 years of driving, I don't ever recall seeing gas less than $2, let alone less than $1! In Michigan, it's 78 cents a gallon! There is actually a record low of 47 cents at a station in Houghton. With gas being this...

DudeBaker @infatuatedbby Michigan is surrounded by massive lakes, why go to North central Michigan to see a smaller lake? But you're right, there are good reasons to visit. I used to live in Western Michigan. If you're an outdoors-person, there is quite a lot to do...

Does anyone here play FTL (Faster Than Light) on Steam/PC/iPad? If so, please share strategies here. Show me what you have in your hangar, or maybe share some of your better builds. Have you beat the Flagship? How many times?...

DudeBaker There's really not much up there in North-Central Michigan, trust me. It's not worth the trip. :P

One of the greatest benefits of living in Florida is our subtropical climate and generally mild winters. But even Florida gets its share of frigid weather in January and February, and -- GASP! -- we sometimes even need to turn our...

DudeBaker I've considered relocating to Florida because I experience physical aches and pains during the cold winter months. During winter, I typically set my thermostat at 65 or 66 during the day, and turn it down to 62 at night. We utilize space heaters where...

Most people are focusing on the Presidential nominee from the Republican Party. However, is it true that Hillary Clinton is the anointed one of the Democratic Party and Bernie Sanders has no chance to wrest the nomination away...

DudeBaker Small chance. Sanders makes no attempt to hide what he really believes, hence his alliance with the Junior Socialist Party. That kind of makes him come off asa raving lunatic, at times. However, I do think he has a small chance. Hilary might be the popular...
