    Default Yoo Hoo Laurie in Bradenton.....

    I was thinking about your secondary job, where you guys clean out estates for people. I'm wondering if you'd share your best freebies from that source..? Sounds very interesting and I'm sure you get some good stuff sometimes.

    Absolutly! The best freebie for me was a collection of cookbooks from a women who used to cook for the circuses. She had them from all over the world. About 100.
    For DH it was a brandnew Motor still in the box for his boat.
    For DD its jewerly all types.
    For DS its computer parts.
    For my mom its religous books
    So send me your looking for lists.
    I carry a small notebook in my purse with peoples lists of wants. Everything from dish patterns to titles of books. Since I never know when I'm gonna come across something I carry the book all the time. Also I watch for folks to mention a need like Melinda whos getting a box load of cookie cutters, Misti whos getting cloth napkins and Katie in Germany whos been getting pretty magazines.
    Soooo if your looking for something send me what it is your looking for and a mailing address. If I come across it I'll drop you a postcard or email to see if your still looking and if so I'll send it to you.
    Now warning somethings take time to come across so be patient.
    Even if what your looking for is an odd item ask I come across the strangest things.
