Final sale price

[Tammy]

So there you are having your treasures totaled up.  What was the highest price your cash register sale has totaled?
This isn't much but tonight's total came to $35 and was a bunch of misc items.

OMG! with or w/o granddaughters and daughter . . . they can come out of the 'As Is' Goodwill with $300+ but for me alone a $40 shopping spree is good. New SO like thirsting too. Hmm . . .  will we be featured on the next episode of "Hoarders

Once I ws in Salvation Army and there was a clerk taking brnad-new VINTAGE german cucoo clocks out of the boxes, and hanging them on the wall for display.  Guy kept trying to shoo me off, when I told him that I may be interested in buying all of them, and if so I wanted them in the original boxes.

I ended up buying 6 or 7 vintage clocks, all new in the original boxes for $200 if I remember correctly.  I had my father go through all the clocks, inspect, service, & oil them.  For his services I gave him his choice of the clocks.  He took a reproduction of one of the first clocks made, with wooden gears. 

I gave the nicer ones as Christmas gifts, sold off the lesser ones on Ebay and still netted an overall profit!

The total that comes to mind for me was back around Christmas 2008 - Salvation Army in Casa Grande AZ.

It was two lots of electronics which had (combined) in them
- two (2) Adcom 555 power amps
- Sansui AU-517 Integrated Amp
- Sansui TU-517 Tuner
- Hafler P1000 power amp
- Technics SL-1650 Turntable

Total was $157 and change.  This lot was easily worth over a grand.

In another electronics buy, this one was more reasonable for the Salvation Army folks - I dropped $299.99 on a pair of Technics SB-7000A speakers (these are more rare than hen's teeth in the states and most were brought back from SE Asia by servicemen in the 1970's).

I still have the two Adcoms and the Technics speakers (the SL-1650 was loaned to a friend who still uses it) and the rest has been sold.

I once found a set of pretty china in a ts, nearly a full 8 place settings, plus some serving pieces, and some additional
pieces that weren't part of the pattern but went with it amazingly well, plus afew unrelated odds and end and ended up spending $34 total.  A bargain I thought.

Hoarders?  I wouldn't be surprised if we ended up on Extreme Couponing the way we make our steals...I mean, deaals!!

I have to correct my above entry (thanks to my handy-dandy thrift store log - this was the last entry).

The Technics Turntable was an SL-B5, it was around Christmas 2007, and the total was $77.52 for everything.

Can't remember everything!

I only thrift clothes, and mostly at goodwill. I wait for days where everything is $1, so by myself probably $25 or so. Sometimes I go to other thrift stores with my mother and we've spent $40 or so.
