First Rummage of the Year Scores

I had such high hopes for this blog but alas, as the title says, I have too many things I want to do and not enough time in the day to get them done.
I wanted to share my awesome scores from one sale I went to on Saturday.  I wanted to visit more garage sales but felt satisfied by my finds from the one sale so I stopped to keep from building on Mt. Unlisted or worse, creating a whole mountain range.  But that is for another post.
So feast your eyes on this goodness:
I know, right?  The cooler was my happiest score.  I have a friend who has her finger on the pulse of cool and has been wanting one of these for her husband for camping but said they were too spendy.  Well, for $2 my Apple man could be trendy and cool.  After I showed him completeds on ebay, he wants me to sell it.  I argued the beer/bottle opener feature on the handles alone is worth keeping but no joy.  It's outta here.

Good by beautiful vintage coolness cooler.
I found my first vintage pyrex casserole dish.  Not a super hottie but I am grateful none the less.  The binoculars are for the kids, not worth much and too much fun.  The fossil watch is hard to research but I don't think it's worth much.
The last bit was a Christmas sweater and a vintage penguin ice bin.  The penguin cooler is mid-century and hot.  Just shows, constant research pays.  I would have never picked this up without people sharing what they are selling on thrift shares.
I got 5 vintage playstation games for Space Boy and a shirt and a jacket for Little Critter and Normal Child.  How much did I spend? . . .$13.  Man do I love a good rummage sale.
