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.

My Yardsale & Estate Sale buys from yesterday
here's the stuff I bought yesterday. Most stuff was bought at 2 yardsales - one was an estate sale where I filled up a vintage wooden crate and when I asked the price - they said $5 for all. In the video I forgot to mention that the black lunchbox was a freebie at the estate sale. And for $5 (for all) I bought the DVDS, the X-box 360 DVD player (it's been opened and the instruction manual is missing) and the hoodie sweater for myself.
The new Pier 1 birdfeeder was $3. The shelves were .50 each. Carpet slider toy .25
And I found the proof that I shopped at a mall while I was in Southern California:
Hey Chris...I am hoping you can help a little girl from your hometown of Clifton Park. She is in the running for the Pepsi Refresh Project. The voting ends today (Tue Aug 31) and if she wins she will receive the money for Hannah's Hope which is trying clinical trials her rare disease.
