Vern, those are perfect.

Great Score!

Nice Vern! But how much? We need to know in order to determine if it's really a score or not..... :D

Probably does not qualify as a "score" but it's definately a score for me. Having my mom's 90th birthday party on June 12th and will be seeing my siblings that I haven't seen all Covid period. I really needed to spruce things up a bit and buying new furniture comes with a 6 month wait. I probably paid half (or less) of what these would sell new. They are very high-quality and in like new condition - and super comfortable. $1700. There were a couple of dirt spots on the back of the loveseat which came out with a little carpet cleaner.

Vern, probably not a "score" in the pure sense of the word, BUUTTTTT, they are still PERFECT!!

Hey Vern,

Thanks for getting back to me with the pricing and context. Considering the situation you described, I think you did score. Congrats and please give Mom and big hug from Baz!

Duane Eddy and a SubPop sampler in the same free pile. I like the variety!

I scored a free pick up on a washing machine! Ours kicked the bucket. I could smell that the belt had burned and most likely broken. I didn't check out what actually went wrong, although I could not move the agitator at all, just heard the motor spinning. Maybe the tranny locked up. I hauled it out to the street and brought in the new. I put a sign on it saying, "free, belt broke" and it was gone the next day!

I had a bit of a laugh at my favorite place, the dump shop :rolleyes: I saw the mannequin and gave the girls behind the counter the $30 (USD$20) and took the mannequin. I looked back and they were both laughing their heads off looking at me so I said "It looks a bit like you." that shut the super model looking one up but the other one laughed even more. I was half way to the car and some random guy yelled out "Ya got a new girlfriend." Ha, some people have no manners (LOL). Then I got it home and proudly showed GF. She didn't look terribly impressed and said "Well at least put some pants on her." So I put on an old pair of jeans and a Hawaiian Lei. I really like it. It's for my man cave. So all 'n all, it's been a bit of an adventure. I certainly got my thirty bucks worth of fun out of it/her.

That mannequin is freaking awesome, Bill! I'd love to have a few of those! NICE score, brother! :)

I get kidded some because of all the curb pickups I score. Well my cat Tucker sure appreciates them if no one else does!

Cat knows best Baz. Good score.

Thanks, Bill! Does look fast, doesn't it? :)

Got this for free. I had fixed it up a few years ago for the lady till she sold her house this year. The deck was so bad the spindles fell out of it so i cobbled it back together enough so it doesnt chop her feet off. Well I scraped that and stripped everything off it didnt need. I also welded the diff now itll make a nice yard work / mud toy

Picked up 57 stacking chairs for free off FB marketplace. Will work great for the upcoming backyard event once we put chair covers on them. :)

So what is her name?

She looks easy 😁

Jaguar E type
 

I finally got a green E type Jag yesterday for two dollars. I think the box is more valuable than the glass bottle. The nasty fragrance juice will be used for paint stripping in the garage. DP
