Default Yard sale gloat

I quit going to yard sales. On the rare occasion I find something good
they always want more than a brand freaking new one. I quit selling at
yard sales too. Ask $20 for something worth $100, and folks want it for
50¢.


Wonderful. More for me. I'm going to start "Pickin" the local ones. I
just look for "home runs", and here in smaller town America, there is a good
chance to pick up on people's "junk" that does very nicely on ebay to the
city slickers. I might even start doing "cleanouts", where I'll go in, and
clean out a garage or attic for free, and I get to keep everything. Some
people want that so they don't have to deal with Aunt Martha's "stuff".

I just listed the gas cap. Will see what it brings. The kit is $160 from a
retailer.
