Garage Sale

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia :
A garage sale, also known as a yard sale, rummage sale, tag sale, attic sale, moving sale, or junk sale, is an informal, irregularly scheduled event for the sale of used goods by private individuals, in which "block sales" are allowed, so that sellers are not required to obtain business licenses or collect sales tax.



Lately, my parents in laws have this craze of checking out Garage Sales in Klang Valley. Been wanting to join them but didn't get the chance to do so. Most of the time was because Sham would rather be sleeping than checking out these places. Haruslerrr, malam xtido, check out football matches n spent time with PS2.... Errghhhhhhhhhh.........

Due an 'offer' he couldn't resist, we managed to follow then to checked out a garage sale held at a resident in Bandar Utama.

All i can say is - not too bad. But u've got to be smart in choosing the stuff. It actually depends on the stuff they wanted to sell... U've got to be persuasive in bargainig too - which my Mum n Dad in law in really good in doing so - but not Sham, seriously...

I got this skirt for only RM 10. Still new, price tag x buang lagi... Actual cost was RM 79.00, mark down to RM70.00...

Finally we managed to get several stuff. The green mengkuang bag is new... Got it for RM2 (believe it or not). It used it to carry my botol air to work, planning nk buat handbag, but then nt ada lak yg kata bakul ular la, bakul scofield lorrr... Mula la nk carik seruling bagai... LOL.... u know who u r... but u made my day la... Mwahhhsssx...

Sham got the lappy bag for only RM15. X guna lagi. Its just that the design is quite obsolete. But its BELKIN - quite branded gaks... Then he got scolding not bagaining. So, he actually checked out the original price at Cineleasure - and its RM 100 plus... Gigih sgt...




The bakul - RM 10.00 for both
Water jar - RM 1.00
Brown Rice RM2.00 (xbukak lagi)






All in all, i could say that Garage Sale is great. But u've got to be smart in purchasing. Btw, it depends on luck too, if the goods that thay decided to sell is cool, then u're lucky - n vise versa...
