A couple of weeks ago my moms neighbor called her and said they had a Hot Wheels set in their garage sale that they thought I might want. So she tells them she will call me, I was out of town visiting King Tut. My mom doesn't know anything about it except the neighbor says Hot wheel set and $5. She calls me and asks if I want it and I figure $5, I will take a chance. I went by my moms today to pick it up and it is a huge Sears Tyco set with 8 cars. 4 of the cars went in my case. I was pretty happy when I saw it wasn't a Hot Wheels set.

Nice! I once got the opposite call " have a whole tub full of slot cars", but was too good to be true - all diecast!

Garage sale Oh yeah. I found this for 5 bucks. I would call myself more of an admirer than collector as which I would like to be able to reverse. Turned into 112 bucks. Keep that GS eye and keep the others eyes open for your score. My bro found the box , I found the score. I did keep the chassis.

I'd say that was a good way to spend five bucks. Good for you. Dave.

I hope my son's luck is rubbing off. Within the past two months my son has found 2 FOUR LEAF Clover's.

Four leaf clovers, nice, but I haven't been offered $112, or even $5 for one yet. I'd rather find a lime charger.
Gotta turn over a lot of rocks to find something that nice so cheap!

I personally have not found anything good at a garage sale in forever, I am just glad to have people looking out for me.
