Fail! - My first garage sale
I saw a listing on craigslist that included the words I love to see "several Twins bobbleheads." The sale started at 8:00 on a Thursday morning. I got to the sale just after 8, probably around 8:05, casually strolled thru the sale items and didn't notice any bobbleheads. Figuring maybe they hadn't set them out yet, I asked the nice lady hosting the sale. Her response, "I'm very sorry but we already sold them this morning!" At that moment, those 3 little words "several Twins bobbleheads" struck me again and I knew what I was in for. After a full season of hitting garage sales, I'm still not sure of the etiquette, plenty of people say "no early birds" while others obviously don't care. I try to be respectful of the hosts/owners as much as I can. But now...after my first garage sale and immediate first failed garage sale...it was on. I'm a competitive person (ask my wife). Game on.
