How cool!! I love stories like this. You never know what you might find when you start looking around. My mother-in-law lives in FL and religiously spends her weekends hunting for treasure at yard sales. So far she's found some great items that cost $1.00 and are worth $600 or more. Sometimes her finds are just silly ones. A few weeks ago while hitting different yard sales she came upon a lady who was selling the new gold colored $1.00 President and Sacagawea coins for $.25 ea. She tried to explain to the woman what they were but she just looked at her like she was crazy, so she stopped trying and bought them all.
