Hey
I went to thrift store and a gentleman was looking at Hoover. I said can I do something and show you a few things. He said"sure do you work here?"
I am not good at quoting conversations. I took out folded cardboard in the hose. I showed him attachments and how to use the power nozzle. He asked if it was a good vacuum. I laughed and said I put cardboard in machine yesterday so nobody would buy it. It's a great machine and it's a vacuum I'd buy. He asked if I wanted it. I told him no sir I want you to buy it. I just like to help people understand how to use vacuums. I told him I collect fix and sell vacuums. I looked at every vacuum there and told him about each one. I said the one you got is really nice. He was using for his house. He wanted one for his storage unit. I showed a smaller eureka with dust bin. I explained it's good because if you suck up a quarter it won't ruin the motor. He said thank you very much and shook my hand.
I didn't get it but I fixed clog and showed him how to use it. I felt bad for sabatoging a vacuum. I'm glad he understood how to use the vacuum.

The store was restocked but I swear it was like black Friday with groves of people. The only things left were two Bissell shampooers with no water basin and a Bissell with a shot motor.
