Sam, it wasn't that long ago these were selling for $200-250.  Sure would like to find one at a garage sale or hardware store. ;D

Fine one, I'd like to go in to an old hardware store and find a case of them. Might as well wish big!

My "claim to fame" on these is that I did find one like that Roger. I forget what I gave for it, either five, or eight, or ten dollars, one of the three. I offered it to a WAGS member for what I had in it and they told me no, I better hang on to it, and they then proceded to tell me what it was. I just bought it because it was cute.

Now that's a true friend there Perry. ;D  If you run across another for that price snag it for me and I'll double your money.  Twenty bucks for ten bucks is a ten percent profit right? ;D

Thats right Roger, and you'll never lose money if you make just ten percent.  ;)
