The mister and I went to the spring community yard sale hosted by Frederick News Post last Saturday. There weren't a lot of sellers this year compared to the previous years. I saw vintage purses there but I did not buy one. I also liked a few oil portrait paintings with gilded ornate frames. They were affordable at $20 a piece, but the mister didn't like them, and if he did and bought a piece or two, I wouldn't know where to hang them.
I see a lot of things I liked but none of them made my heart said, "Paboom! Paboom!", so I came home empty handed.
That small old sewing machine was $25.
What's the magic word?
FREE!
We took one free item from this box.
Guess which one?
Here's what the mister bought--- a Petula Clark's My Love vinyl record from the 60's for $5? It's in Japanese so I do not know exactly the year this was released.
And oh! What we got from the FREE box was the 10-piece pack of Maxell MF 2HD disks.

There was also a yard sale just this morning but it was raining so I didn't go. Anyway, they post their items at FB so I am in the comfort of my home looking at them, though most of the items are the big ones. Sometimes, we get to see a real bargain since some will move out of the country and they are selling their things cheaply.
I wouldn't even know where to hang any more artworks at home that's why I don't paint or buy one anymore. If you ever pass by Bangkok, I'll send you to a yard sale type of market known for their older items. If I ever go, I'll make a post about it.
Yes these days I only buy things that make my heart go Paboom! too
Wah I guessed wrong Lili. I thought you picked the crystal like thingies :)
Thanks for sharing! I always love your thrifting adventure posts :)
