Nice one, J.O', They don't get much cleaner than that.
Good stuff buddy. I am also trying my best to network with the local thrift stores, and a few people who do storage locker clean outs. The service i provide is ill buy the junk and China made ones too as sort of a favor. Though i must say, chatting with all these older fellas all the time is rewarding enough in and of itself.

I'm fair and they don't pay for the items anyway, so it's a nice relationship. O'.

I then give 10 or so to the shop and she has them in a box near the cash register. She says they go well for $5 apiece. Works for the shop so I get first pick on what comes in. Can't say its often, maybe once every two months.
