I'll be there. I love to go antiquing, junking or garage sales...
People will buy the strangest things, seriously. They will pass up designer clothes for 1.00 and buy something with a tiny hole for 1.50. You never know what they will buy or what will be hot.

One thing I found, they do like to buy shoes. I guess they are broken in for them...and sheets! This is strange, any size or color, just sheets.

Oh yes, another strange thing in demand at garage sales is bathing suits...why, I don't know...maybe people can buy them cheap without having to try them on and face themselves in the mirror.

One more thing is books...paper backs, or first edition, it doesn't matter...just books.

I would have one myself, but they are way too much like work. Ideally what I should do is buy space at an antique/flea market and keep it stocked for a fee. That way I could keep shopping, and replenish what is sold. Does that make sense?

I am a professional shopper, after all.

Good idea, after my operation, I might look into that. Thanks you two, you have given me an idea!

Good luck, and have plenty of change and bags!
