Well yesterday Me and my Grandma went thrifting.
We stopped at the flea market first, Saw a(n):
Shark commercial for 20$ (What a deal that was O.o)
I saw a Hoover elite 200 and and an early Bissell fan-first, The kind that looks like an elite.I would've gotten those, And i tried to, But Granny said "I have too many's vacuums".That is one reason i'm trying to restore my barn (For vacuum storage of course LOL).

I also saw an old Windows Millennium Edition computer.I really wanted it because i like old computers too, Especially Windows ME.The guy said it did not work, And wanted 20$ for the thing! (It's quite obious i passed, Isn't it?).

So we left the flea market empty handed.
Then we headed to this place called the "Thrift shop",It's a little place that donates the cash to the next door Humiane society.Didn't see anything in there, Although they often times do have GREAT stuff.

Then we where gonna go to my Aunt Wanda's place.She moved into a house next to a church where her grandson is pastoring now, She said she had a bunch of junk that needed to be sold, so we where gonna go there first, But my Grandma wanted to go to a little shop called "St.Vincent's thrifht shop".They're also a donating shop, An d i am VERY glad we went there.

I immediantly went down to the "Electronics" isle, And as i got closer i thought i saw some old Eureka canister type thing,But when i got up to it. IT WAS A SIGNER CANISTER FROM THE 70'S YEAH! So i picked that up.I then turned, THERE WAS A VINTAGE HOKY SWEEPER! So i got that too. I then look on a shelf, AND THERE'S A THING OF BRAND NEW KENMORE TWIN FAN TOOLS WITH THE MANUAL AND SOME TRISTAR BAGS!!!!! So i got them all! However, The clerk told me they went back to the same hosue for some more junk, And she'd call me if they find the kenmore. I could get a better deal with the vacuum she said, So she's gonna call me as i put the attachments on hold.I'm expecting a call sometime today or tomorrow.

Pictures to follow soon ;)

-Alex.
