Weekend shopping in PA

[perc-o-prince]

Hey there,

We're in PA having a little much-needed R&R. And what better way to do that than in the Adamstown area where you'll find almost as many antique shops as you will delis in NYC!

Here are some pix from today. Some are general shots and others are more specific.

Here's a nice booth with a lot of glassware and Pyrex.

And if you look in enough shops, you'll find just about anything! They even sell beaver in PA.... legally!

And what's different about this blender?? We'll post a side pic near the end.

This was being sold as a salesman's sample. Was it that or a toy? Maybe a vac guru out there can let us know!

A very nice store Pyrex display.

This is always a great booth. Too bad most of the goods are priced so high!

Here's one side of that booth.

Great patio lanterns! If you've been to the house in the summer, you know I kinda like 'em. The gayer, the better! These say that they, "add gayety to all festivities!"

Here's a great commentary on the state of beanie babies today!

Super cool patio lights!!!

I wouldn't dare buy them 'cause I'd be too afraid of breaking one or having one burn out! This is the cheapest we've seen a set like these, and they were $65!!!

And here's the mystery mixer from before. It's a combo blender and mixer!!!

 

[perc-o-prince]

And that Electric Toilet Tissue???

We still have more shops to hit tomorrow, so maybe we'll get a few more shots to post! Hope you're all having a good weekend!!

Travel safe too guys!

Hoover

I'm sure you're worth all of it, but did you catch the pricetag??? Sounds high for what it is. Would you say so? We don't have a lot of experience with these toys (and have NO intention on buying it... OUCH.... Rich just pinched me!!! We would have an intention of buying it if maybe it was 75% off, so I guess I lied!!!).

Rich, it looks like you guys really had a fun day and saw lots of funt things. Just wondering about the toy Hoover, is it electric and if I may ask how much did they want for it? I have never seen anything like it before. Terry
