Your Strangest Thing

We sold Beeman's gum for a while.
It was back in the day when just buying something on ebay was much more of a thrill than buying it at the dime store.

The wierdest purchase at this household was a Violin-Uke. My husband actually got in a bidding war over it. That was back in the day before I taught him how to bid.

Growing up in a family that treasure hunts the auctions and garage sales every weekend for cool old antiques as our entertainment, when I first discovered eBay I went a bit impulsive and ended up with a wooden pipe organ pipe. I have since sold it and the little one my dad found one day to add to my collection (buy one thing and you're now 'collecting'!), but they were fun to hook up to the vacuum cleaner to reverse-play them! My hoarding gene is strong, but I've learned to sell a few things occasionally.
