New England WASH-IN

[vacboy88]

In regard to vacuums...

Anything Electrolux. Parts or complete machines. Also anything Hoover, especially Convertables. However, I understand you either may not own or do not wish to trade/sell these. However, if you have anything in particular that YOU would like to sell or trade, please do bring it along. Sometimes I don't realize I need or want something until I see it in person! Is anyone else looking for any particular vacuums or parts? I will see what I have and can bring those items with me.

Coffee Pots

I have some Silex/Cory coffee pots. Electric and stovetop.

Vacuum Cleaners

I would be interested, also, in buying one or two steel or aluminum Electrolux (USA) wands.

Lux Wands

I have a set of aluminum ones in good shape and will bring them with me to the wash-in.

Looks like I opened the floodgates on this one. Thanks, guys, for the suggestions. It's definitely time to thin out the ranks around here, and it sounds like we'll have a lot of fun doing it. Hopefully, I won't go home with more than I came with.

I'm so happy!!

It seems that this event is shaping up and the interest is high!!! I can't wait!! Perhaps we should have a name for this event???

I will have some toasters, coffee pots and maybe some vacuum cleaners and other assorted thinks for sale and/or trade, as well!

I think I might just save myself some work and let you all clean um/err test/demonstrate your vacs on my carpets!!! I'm a slow learn so you may have to do a lot of vacuuming before I "get the picture".

New Name for get-together

First of all, c'mon, Rich, do you think we were born yesterday???? Vacuum your own carpets!!! Although, I have to admit it was a good try.

Anyway, since this isn't really going to be a "wash-in" and it is more a get-together for some people to meet and some people to get re-acquainted, etc., etc., what better name for this than -- Are you ready for this??? --- THE DOWNY "BALL."

Okay, guys, what do you think????

[toggleswitch]

Downy balls?- sounds warm and cozy and fuzzy and inviting.

 

[kenmore58]

Toggle: Get your mind out of the gutter!!!! Downy Ball, like Christmas Ball, Spring Ball, Cinderella and the Ball, get it????

C'mon, it's shades of high school!!!

Got it the first time..... --wink--

Know the difference between a dance and a ball?
Dances are for people of nearly the same age.
A ball is multi-generational. NO JOKE! NO HIDDEN MEANING.

Downy Ball/Dance

Well, I think this is going to be a great get together. It is going to be so nice to meet more of the people on the club.

"Ball or Dance", a good time for all to be had! LOL

 

[maytagbear]

I've heard of

Tea Dance, but not Tea Ball.

I wish I could be there.

Won't they make your lobes hang low? That could be unsightly!:.) Did anyone consider doing a Yankee Swap?
