I'm Chris and I am addicted to yard sales, garage sales, thrift stores and bargain hunting in general. Visit my site yardsalequeen.com - which I started in 1996. "Smile" and "VV" (Vintage Value) are the names of two thrift stores I regularly shop at. I grew up in Clifton Park NY but now live in Lusby, MD. I also lived in other exciting locales such as Schenectady, Watervliet (NY), and Charleston, SC.

Yardsale Tip - make sure street name is spelled right in the ad
Aye yi yi. If your street's name is Cox Road, you should always double check to make sure the classified ad person knows how to spell it correctly. (House # was blackened out by me). This ad appeared in our local rag last week - I couldn't go to it since I was busy with my own sale.
Where I live (right near the University of South Carolina), it would not be at all unusual to find a "Cocks" road!
ReplyDeleteWhen I lived in Charleston, it took me by surprise when I saw a Go Cocks! bumpersticker.
