Garage/estate/yard sales........ thrift shops.... flea markets...... I don't know why those places just call my name. The thrill of the hunt :dontknow:

When I fled Miami for my Adventure Out West, I locked up my house & all possessions and started from scratch with almost everything found at yard sales in Napa CA. It sure was fun. Then did it all over again in Oregon !

Hmmmmmmmmm........... I guess it would be just as much fun to do it again if/when I move to TV :dontknow: It's only stuff.

I love to go to Bargains and Treasures, the local resale shop. They pick up ten loads of things from TV every business day and they do have some dandy Bargains and Treasures. You will love it.

You got that right ConeyIsBabe! But how are you going to cart it all home when all you'll be driving is a tricked-out fancy golf car?

graciegirl, thanks for the Bargains and Treasures suggestion. I'll make a note of that.

Go to Home Depot and rent their 1 ton flatbed truck for $19.95 for 45 minutes.

Or if you have a hitch you can rent a Uhaul for $18 a DAY!!! It was great....if you don't have a hitch...let me know....we have a huge mini van with hitch....you can fit a LOT of stuff in that!!!! Love to shop....especially when spending someone elses money!!!

Cassie & Chuck..... thanks for the tips .... but tkret is just teasing me - cuz I'm still a wannabee 3,000 miles away and dunno when I'll be a TVer :dontknow:

GarageSailing is one of my passions; I even started a topic over in the Feminine Forum called Thrift Shop Shopping to stimulate some interest in sort of a club (carpooling) with lots of responses, so I guess I'm not the only one who loves a bargain

ConeyIslandBabe,
I'm glad you know that I'm just teasing you and filled with the very best intentions. You're a sweetheart and TV will be EVEN better when you arrive as a resident. Stay positive and start planning your visit.

The Villages, Florida is on the top of my bucket list :#1:
