Can you sell Christmas stuff in June?? ......well, I guess not at the auction we were at on Saturday! |
The auctioneer bundled about 20 boxes of Christmas together and tried to get a bid on them. The boxes and totes were all under two long tables...you couldn't even see what was in them. |
Cricket.....cricket.....cricket.....no one bid...... |
H poked me and said "bid on that". I looked at him like he was crazy.....he poked me again and said "BID on that" |
What would I do with 20 plus boxes of misc. Christmas items????????? |
Well, Kyleigh (she was with us) had been looking at the bears....maybe.......so I bid the minimum! |
Here is the car loaded with all the excess that is headed to the Light House today to be donated.... |
There were tons of bears that the kids will enjoy at Christmas. |
Wow! You have to keep your eye open! What a deal.. Your hubby got the train and others were blessed too.. all for $1.00...great Blessings!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful. Think of the smiles those bears are going to bring to those receiving them.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on that wonderful train set.
