The Thrift Stores today

Ray there are some Seeing machines at the Plainfield Goodwill by my house. I saw a Montgomery Wards there last week. It's probably still there.

Lots of craptastic plastic today, a Dirt Devil featherlight that the bearings were just screaming on. A Kenmore LP2 twin brush roll upright (don't quite get why 2 brush rolls, but then I didn't get why the Kenmore beltless brush roll, (the one with the motor in the brushroll))

There was also a Kirby Classic III for $5

Goodwill had a Rainbow D for $5, I left it there.
I ended up with an Arkay in the original box with the manual and original hose and attachments.

I've been buying up a lot of waterless cookware from Lustre Craft, Healthcraft, Lifetime, VitaCraft etc. Lately. Stores usually charge $3-5 a pan and apparently are unaware just how expensive that stuff is these days.

Vacuums have been kind of sparrse in quality or condition for the price. My last really good find was the E2 Black last summer and I found a Fantom Thunder and a Fury in pretty good shape since.

Everything else has been pretty much watches, jewelry and occasional stray pieces of silver.

Used to find a lot of paintings but not so many anymore, same goes for good stereo equipment.

Saw a Hoover 584 convertible for $8 today and left it there.

Goodwill had a Eureka Precision (looks like a Hoover Concept I) and a Eureka ESP with the pearlized emerald green metal top, VibraGroomer I, and off white brocade bag.
