More estate sales
I went to two different sales this weekend, which is unusual. One was on the way home from work on Friday, and there must have been 15 cars parked in front of this house. I thought, "Wow, this sale should be great!" and went in. Unfortunately not a whole lot was there, but I did get for $25:
--a Scooby-Doo lunch box from the '70s (no thermos)
--3 boxes of Japanese coil incense
Then DH and I went to one today that was in one of our favorite neighborhoods, Hollywood Heights -- yes, the houses are all little 1920s bungalows and I wish we could afford to live there. We got for $3:
--a few albums, Mahalia Jackson and a couple of touristy "Songs of Old Mexico" and "Songs of Hawaii" which I picked for the cute front covers
--a handful of old 45s of stuff DH liked, like Roger Miller (King of the Road!) and Allan Sherman (Hello Muddah!)
--a hurricane glass from Pat O'Brien's bar in New Orleans
--a little clay dish with a lid (for salsa or guacamole, I'm thinking ) with Mexican-type designs
--a green 4-dish appetizer set from a pottery co. in California, probably 1940s
So I probably paid too much at the first one, but made up for it at the second
