    Lesson learned at garage sell

    A craiglist garage sale ad had listed silver rings. Open at 7am, I was one of 14 people in line waiting for the silver rings to be brought out. There were about 5 boxes in the yard and the owner said they were somewhere in one of the boxes, I about got knocked over by a 70 year young lady to go on this treasure hunt. I found them in the first box I looked in. They were in a plastic baggie, upon close look, not worth the wait. Gave them to the nearest person. Lesson learned, do not get in the way of the ladies hunting for silver.

    Another lesson learned.

    If you want a good turnout for a garage sale, advertise a bunch of silver rings in a box that your not sure which one their in which gets people looking in all the boxes at all the junk.

    I like it
