anyone who knows me knows i love to Hoard lol. I am hooked on fleamarkets, yardsales, rummage sales, etc.
i buy boxed lots in bulk and then sort through the items, lately my Hoarder's room has become packed to the point i haven't been spending much time in it cause it's too crowded and such.
well today i put 5 boxes of items to the curb for clean up. This way i can make room for the stuff i am sure i will be lugging home lol.
do any of you rummage for treasures come clean up? what is one of the most memorable finds?

Oh yes I love going to yard sales, thrift stores, etc. My husband and I used to buy and resell items and we loved doing that!! I miss it but we don't have the vehicle for it anymore. We have found a lot of awesome things mostly things we actually needed. =)

I used to love yardsales and rummage sales, but I don't have much room here for much stuff, and plus, you know me, very in to the paranormal, and after watching alot of the documentaries where people have bought old dolls, furniture, paintings, etc from rummage sales, yard sales, etc, and ended up bringing bad spirits in to their home, I am kind of skeptical to buy anything like that anymore. I know I'm crazy, but hey, you wouldn't have me any other way

My best friend and I were poking around in a thrift store. We saw a box that said decorated rocks, $3. It was half price day so we paid $1.50. There were wonderful polished rocks in the box. There was rose quartz, all kinds of other minerals and even some geodes. She ended up taking most of them for her husband and I did not end up with much. It was a great buy because those rocks are worth a lot of money.

it's amazing the things you can stumble across. i love it. i am a collector simply of items that i feel have a story or a purpose, then when i have lost interest i sell it or give it as a gift
