Movieman sounds like you have something that is draining the battery like a light in the glovebox that doesn't go out when closed, underhood light doing the same, just something somewhere not going off when you shut down.  This can be a real pain to find.  Good luck!

Just the other day I found a never used Zippo light in a box of this from my parents house.  It has the logo of Liberty National Life Insurance on it my how things have changed.  I am going to see if it is worth anything since it has not sentimental value.

Jewelry box that was full of......

old shoes, boots, and dirty socks!

Wed. Jan 4 I was riding toward my house when I saw a garage sale sign.  I think you have to be crazy to do that in the middle of the week and temp. is in the 30s   So I had to check what they had and see if the prices were crazy too   Bought a cute made to look old trunk for $5 sold it today from my booth at Southern Pickers for $24.95   Bought a vintage childs desk for $5 needs work, but I think it will sell for at least $50   For $24 I bought a Martha Washington style Maghogany sewing cabinet   It needs a little work, but my research shows they sell online for $95 to $525   This garage sale picking is fun

I bought a 3500 Dodge Sprinter to do this with for many of the enclosed adVANtages.  Mine is a Super High Roof so tall items are not a problem.  It has a wheelchair lift that the previous owner had installed.  It is a 2005 model that had 113,256 mi. when I bought it for $13,000.  It drives great and gets over 20 mpg.

Did my first silent auction today and scored one for $201   10x15 You could see an old 50cc Suzuki 4 wheeler, 2 small scuba tanks  appliance handtrucks, area rugs, some jackets, concrete flower pots, a large mirror,and a toy chest that looked like an old half size gas pump, PS3 box, and several boxes and totes. 
4 wheeler turns out to be a very old model and pull cord is messed up will work on later   PS 3 box was empty as I really thought it would be.  BUT
The boxes contained lots of tea pots copper, glass, ceramic, you name it.  Also have some nice International Table works and Johnson Brothers China, misc collectable plates and items that will go well at my booth in Southern Pickers. There is an old 3 toed green glass bowl with gold gilt that I am still researching that may be worth over $200.
Under the jackets was a Chase Authentics Driver Lane Jeff Gordon Winston Cup Drivers jacket in near mint condition    Thought I was on SW for a minute there! This should bring about $100.  Toy box has some die cast collectable cars sold one to a friend with some other items for $60   She also gave me some advice about the other NASCAR items.  Mirror was very old may be sold for $125.  The area rugs are almost new and will be on Craigslist today still have to research the price. 
The real treasure was my son was with me and had a great time helping
