    Default Yard Sale Bargains

    Yep, you read right! What is the best or wierdest thing you have ever found at a yard sale???

    I love to go yard "saleing", When else can you look through other people's junk and not get fussed at for it!!! It is also a great place to pick up cheap parts for lightsabers.

    Back when I was a bachelor, I picked up the plexi-glass front from a Pepsi machine for $1. It looked like this:



    I had it hanging on the wall in my computer room for a while, but I eventually got rid of it.

    its not a lightsaber part, but i thought it was pretty cool. it is called a himalayan salt crystal. it lights up and is basically a rock night light thingy. i thought it looked sort of like a lightsaber crystal formation from the video games KOTOR and KOTOR2, so i got it and pretend that its from a crystal cave . a found a picture of what mine looks like on the internet. its about 7 inches tall and made out of a giant piece of rock.

    my last bargain would be a 1 watt FM transmitter, $15 it's about 30 years old but still works. I used it last summer on a friends farm to play songs from my Laptop at the barn.
    Purple Fourteen, ummn yeah where did I leave the keys to this freighter again ?
