awww, we're both gonna be gone a lot today! what will they do without us?:wah::wah::wah:

i don't go to yard sales I much prefer the auctions, i've gotten so i really enjoy the bidding. It strange sometimes at the farm equipment auctions i'll be the only girl in a group of men bidding on something, but i tell ya i think it's an advantage, a lot of them won't push the bidding when it's aganist a woman and sometimes i can get things for less.:wah::wah:

Yep, know about the depression glass. I buy a lot of gemstones at the auctions. Picked up a pair of burma round rubies for $40! They were nice and clean and perfectly cut. I made stud earrings out of them.


that sounds great! i got my good china that i use in the dining room at an auction too!

one thing i will NOT buy second hand though is clothes, i don't want anything anybody else has been wearing.

Hope, never been to an auction but my brother & SIL go all the time and their house is filled to the brim with really nice stuff.

As for clothes, I go to a medium/high end place for Quin called Kid to Kid. It's a chain and you might have one near you. You'd have to look on their website. It's good quality clothing and alot of name brands for way less.:wah:

BTW: This coffee is supreme this morning.

Idgie;845844 wrote: Morning Duck! Nice to see you here even if it's just for a little bit!

Nah, I don't buy second hand clothes either. I don't yard sale. I too, am hooked on the bidding action. It can get exciting! :-6


yeah the auctions do get exciting and if you want something you can't hesitate or it will be sold and gone!:wah::wah:

"At least we have something in common right"? Yardsales and auctions. It's always fun to get a bargain".

that's right,

i don't think we have a kid to kid around here but there is a consignment shop called once upon a kid, but i've never been.

i know a lot of women around here with babies buy all there baby clothes at yard sales and stuff but i said from the beginning i'm not gonna do it!:wah:

i guess that's one of the reasons some people around here think i'm a bit of a snob!:wah::wah:

"Too bad they don't know you like we do Hope and I don't see that side of you at all". "Besides you're son's clothes for summer are probably really inexpensive and so what right"? And I'll bet he looks really cute. I know there are some really good bargains on little boys shorts and Old Navy is always running a 2 for $15.00 sale.

"Umm, that coffee is really good this morning, I do believe Mustang has the right touch". *Walking into kitchen for some muffins* "Anybody want some homemade muffins"?

"Oh, I forgot, who won the hula hoop contest"?:wah:

"Chris won the contest"? Oh, cool and then in that case, he win's the grand prize to Hawaii". "Mmmm, would you like the blueberry or banana nut muffin Idgie"?

"Maybe your right as I keep seeing planes flying above me":wah:

you're right i can get summer clothes for him really cheap and why put a lot of money into something he's gonna outgrow so fast!

Hey i love blueberry muffins if you've got any?:-6

Hey, i've got plans to go to Hawaii in a couple of years!:wah:

a group of my friends and relatives have been talking about it for a while now but after i had Jacob i decided to wait and let him get a little older and carry him too!:-6

well i hate to leave you my friends but i've got to be going! i hope to see ya'll later!:-6

mwaaaah to Jj when he gets here!:-4

Hi to Chris if he manages to get on i know he was having internet trouble yesterday.:-6

Idgie;845935 wrote: *Idgie passes Hope a muffin* There ya go my friend!

I can't wait for the blueberries to come on my bushes. They are so good, just picking them fresh.


thank you my friend, i'm sorry i'm gonna have to take it and run, i'll eat it while i'm driving i guess.:wah:

see you soon darlin.

Hello to all today! :-6

Hi Idgie.



Yeah I read about this, what is this about a Hoola Hoop contest or something. I mean you should know, that I'm not really a fun in the sun, kind of guy so to want to go to Hawaii is a no-no hence why would I enter this contest in the first place!?? :sneaky: :-3



I mean if the first prize was say to Switzerland, then I might consider embarassing myself, but not Hawaii!! :wah:

Well I wouldn't say too much is wrong, just I prefer colder more snowy conditions that is all. :guitarist



So whose idea was this contest, I never even heard anything about it. But then perhaps it was because I was so busy trying to keep those male strippers from getting angry because SOME PEOPLE didn't turn up!!! :rolleyes:

Idgie;846006 wrote: Ducks idea! I told her this morning you probably took the hula hoop home with you since nobody showed up for your male strippers. The taker of the hoop got a free trip to Hawaii, so that's where we thought you might be this morning. :wah:



Hope was one lucky lady to be here all by herself for the entertainment. :-6




Hahaha ah so is that where the idea came from. One question though, seeing as how you weren't here, then how would you have known whether there was a Hoola Hoop here last night or not?? :sneaky:



And yes Hope was very lucky yesterday, but she stayed committed to JJ and that was nice to see. He also said that when the lads nights comes that he won't look at the ladies I bring in, but stay with Hope. Believe him?? :sneaky:

Oh well that makes sense, just I was here the whole time I don't remember anyone mentioning a Hoop, but then perhaps I must have just missed that part!!



No I agree that JJ will stick to his word, because he is that kind of guy, and to prove it I haven't seen him flirting with any other women in a long while!



And as for the sign, yes I'm still working on it. It's not easy coming up with a good welcoming sign you know. I have the board and all ready, just not the right words, so as soon as I have those, it will be up within an hour or so!

Hi Ducky, I see you lurking there!!

HI!! Guys! Just Saying HIIIIIIII. :-6

Hi Mustang, sneaking in here I see!!

You're just jealous that you wish you had it!!

Idgie;846078 wrote: Hiya Mustang!



Did you see that Chris is enjoying his prize?



:D :p


Hi Idgie!! ..........It fits him well? .........even looks good on him. Since the Chief is here I can take the rest of the day off?

No you can't Mustang you are working today, you had yesterday off after all!! :wah:



Right I'll have to bring in the Hoop then next time, so that it will keep everybody entertained. If only I had known this earlier, and I could of just bought a load of cheap coloured hoops then all I have done, and saved SOOOOO much in the process!!

AHAAHAHAHA.......May be PInk ones. The Duck is the one that started this thing.

Make sure my hoop will be a green one, k? :rolleyes:


Hahaha that it would of been, clearly I have a lot still to learn as Chief!! :wah:



Green ok I will make a note of it, despite being such a HORRID colour. You sure I can't tempt you for a Red or a Pink one instead? :sneaky: :p

Well Ducky likes making things harder on us all at times doesn't she!! :p



I wonder how JJ is getting on?

"Hello I'm back and what is this about green and pink hoola hoops"? "Mine is purple with smily faces on it".

"Chris, my car is a slate green color and somebody told me it's a soothing color":wah: and my husband's eyes are green:-4

Idgie;846111 wrote: How can green be a horrid color? :-3



Money is green and everybody LOVES money! :p


Well green is also the colour of sickness, or animals like frogs, and nasty vegetables!
