Remember a few posts ago where I said because of past mispricings of items for my antique booth that I always look things up before I price them? I lied. Actually, I got lazy. Whichever, I'm kicking myself again! Remember this piggy bank that was amongst things that...
Do you call it addiction when you wake up at 5:30AM on auction day wide awake when on most work-days 7:00AM is killer? I woke up still doubting whether I should make the 2 hour drive to Camden for a gamble, but I was in the mood for an adventure! So I loaded up three...
Well, actually my birthday was on Wednesday, June 16, but I'd like to post about what I bought myself for my birthday. Late last week I stumbled upon a Craigslist listing announcing that the Main Street Furniture store in Jacksonville, Arkansas was going out of...
