today, is that all there is?

I'm especially interested in bargains - I think everyone likes to get a bargain and save money.
I also think we can help each other by sharing tips and tricks that we have each learned by trial and error.

So here it goes...

I love garage/yard sales, and seem to get the most bargains there. I call them "treasure hunts" and you will surely have some good ones and some not so good ones. I also really like the unique items that you can find at these sales - things that were one of a kind promotional items or things that other folks have handmade. I'm always amazed at the assortment of stuff that a household has collected and the price that they are willing to sell it for. I've been having garage sales and going to flea markets since the 60's - when I remember going to the small flea market in Honolulu when I was a Navy wife. We had very little money then and we loved getting bargains.
