Title: Overlooked some Bling!
Post by: the teacher on July 06, 2012, 11:37:16 PM
Bought locker two months ago....did a quick check, pulled personals and pics and got rid of a couple loads to Goodwill.  Throw boxes in basement.....out of sight, out of mind!  Setting up for garage sale yesterday.....find two fairly thick 14k chains and an earring!

Already made money on the locker from CL and ebay, did pretty fair at the garage sale and still have another day to go, and I'm thinking this should be good for another $450-$600!  I love my job!

I only do this on the side Teacher, but the excitement of the unexpected find is so great. My wife and I were digging out the last large box from our most recent unit and pulled a beautifull wedding dress and 3 brand new formal dresses with tags. A great unit got even better! Congrats on the bling!!

Lol - don't you love when that happens.  I've tought my daughter to search everything before tossing stuff in trash.  One of her last units she purchased had a cloths hamper in front for all to see.  Looked like they tossed the contents under the bathroom sink in it.  She wanted to toss the whole thing.  After I reminder her to look she found a 10k gold/diamond bracelet.  Still need to have it tested but by my home testing it's all real.
