Ps
  The best part  
 The Lady that got the unit across from Me for $ 80. walked over and asked if We had bought lockers before ?  and How did We ever get rid of the stuff ?                                                                 As She was going through the boxes and 6 or so Bags and trash barrels  of clothes She had won. This was her second purchase as She had also won one last month for a little over $ 400 with household goods and boxes of base ball cards and had only been able to sell $ 22. worth of the " GOODIES " at  yard sale's on the main road she lives on  .
  I mentioned donating some of it for the write off and she replied that it's all common stuff and nobody wants it .  ::)
 There was ONE locker at the next place in the town she lived in  about 20 mi. away , She wasn't going and neither were  We , ( not worth it for one locker )  but the other 30+ did .

I would love to find a locker under $200 around this area...these guys throw money at the lockers hoping to find that "one" item they can retire on, but it's going to be a hard lesson learned to many of these guys. As far as that storage shelf you found in the locker, I have two in my garage...nice durable shelving unit....

  Thanks
  No one was bidding , so My wife threw out $ 25 , and We all most had it till the last call , some @3%*+   started bidding against Her at $ 5.00 bid .
  The hardest thing was biting My tongue and keeping a straight face when listening to My " Neighbor " tell about Her great win last month . ( She is On A Roll )

  Going to spend tomorrow with the girls trying to make room for the new shelves along with pricing and setting up one of the lockers for a garage sale this weekend  .                                                          Wife has to work security at the Patriots training camp so I have to " guess " the prices on Her stuff .
  I would like to do garage sale on Sat. and Flea Market on sun. , but We will see
