I almost didn't go to the prince of a sale. It was in a neighborhood that I never have any luck in. It's mostly young families with lots of kid stuff. I decided to drive by just to look from the street. I broke another of my garage sale rules...there was no sign at the street. I usually won't go to a sale when there is no sign at the street, unless is is super obvious that a sale is going on because several years ago, I did go to a sale where there wasn't a sign at the street, and the garage looked set up for a sale-but it wasn't! That embarrassment has stuck with me in the back of my mind, so I tend to skip sales that aren't marked with signs or that aren't super obvious if there isn't a sign.
As I wandered through, I didn't really see much that was of interest to me, and then, at the back of the table in a dark corner, I saw Pyrex! A whole stack of Pyrex! Five pieces of Butterprint (Amish)-all for less than one piece usually sells for! They were all very dirty, but in great shape.
No lids for the casserole dishes, but I just happen to have some lids that I got for free from a local consignment store because "they have been around for too long". Free is great! I knew I'd need them someday, and that day turns out to be today!
The lids aren't perfect, but the price was right.
