An Estate Sale Story

I saw some comments online about an estate sale in Brick, whose house belonged to a hoarder. Of course I had to see it for myself, and 2 hours later I walked out with a box of stuff for $5. If they had a sale every weekend for a year, they might be able to clear out everything in this house.  At times it became so overwhelming you had to go outside  for fresh air. I became curious of one buyer, equipped with gloves and flashlight, who was inspecting the walls. While others around me were rummaging, I watched this inspector find a  hole in the wall, CLIMB INTO IT, and pull out items one by one that even the people hosting the sale didn't know about! Vases, halloween decor, dolls...  all crammed in the wall. This guy knows how hoarders think!




I don't know what I like about it, I just do! She threw it in for free just because I picked it up.

2 for a buck? I'll take it! Now if only I could get the long frame at Michaels for under $15...
