Happy National Garage Sale Day!

-

A garage sale is an event where every customer is trying to find the Golden Prize and purchase something at a garage sale for a low price, and find out it is a Golden Gem for hundreds, thousands, and even maybe millions of dollars. In honor of today being National Garage Sale Day! Here is a list of the top 5 purchases on garage sales that ended up making it big money!

                                                     

5. 1865 Brooklyn Baseball Team Card

This card seems like just some old card, but this 161 year old card was found at a Yard Sale in Maine for a few bucks and when further investigated, it is Baseball Gem Card that is already receiving bids up to $100,000. Seems like a nice trade for "Any old Baseball Card". 

4. 1931 Dracula Poster

People have collections and keep in in an attack, or closet, or garage and do not think about it again. This is exactly what happened. They had a many 80+ year old posters from movies, and out of the 30, the Dracula Poster ended up being worth $500,000. What a nice surprise having half a million dollars in the attic, and you do not even know. 

3. 15th Century Chinese Bowl

Imagine going to a garage sale and seeing a nice bowl with beautiful design and the price was probably at first $50 and you said $20 so it evened out and went to $35. You are happy taking it home saying to yourself, "Wow, this will be a nice little design to leave on the kitchen table! Maybe put some sweet treats in it!" You research it a little more and find out it is a 15th Century Chinese Bowl and ends up for Auction for $500,000! 

                                                                A group of experts say that the painting "Elimar" is a previously unknown work by Vincent van Gogh.

2. Van Gough Painting  

What a crazy trade for this one! This person went to a yard sale and purchased a cool painting not knowing it is some painting of a guy and it is $50 bucks and turns out to be worth $15,000,000! What a bargain! That money will be feeding generations just by purchasing a painting of a guy smoking by the beach. 

                                                               

1. This Garage Sale purchase I would have never bought myself and it still does not make sense to me for how much it ended up costing.  It was $5 to pay for at a garage sale just to by for jokes and it turns out that this was an authentic puzzle created by Jackson Pollock himself and ended up being worth $50,000,000! I am guessing the buyer never worked on the puzzle and sold that immediately.

  We made it everyone! It is finally the best time of the year! The fall season! The crisp morning, the firepit evenings, the football season, the chili, ALL OF IT IS FINALLY HERE! I have been waiting for this since the "Holiday Season" ended and now all I can do is sit, smile, and enjoy the moments we have.  Here are the top 5 things about fall that everyone should be excited for... 5.) Weather The fall weather is better than anything else to experience. Crisp cool mornings and firepit evenings? What is better than that? Winter is always brutal with it being so cold shivering at any point when you are outside and summer do not even get me started... My AC is on full blast at home and in my car at all times, and when I go outside, it is like I am walking through lava. It is always a bad day to wear a t shirt with those sweat stains running down. But I do not have to worry about either those for the next couple of months. Hoodie in the morning on my walks, and hoodies as I sit...

Best Sequel Ideas for Disney Movies

  Adults will be running to the living room couch to be eating Dunkaroos and a Lunchable waiting for the new movie to come up. This cast is incredible to see and will get people of all ages to watch. Kind of curious if they will have EVERYONE from the previous ones to come, but either way, it's the nostalgia that the older people will need to see, and the younger kids can start from the first Camp Rock and watch them all the way to the newest one coming up. This is a win/win scenario for viewers, and I cannot wait to see how it goes. Now if they are doing this... will they be doing this for new movies? Here are a top 5 Disney movies that I would absolutely love for them to make a reboot to be put on in the future.                                                                    ...

Chili's... put some respect on their name

  I have been a loyal fan before it became popular on social media, I have been going there since the early age, I have been requesting Chili's to be my "Family Birthday Dinner Meal". This place has grown much popularity, but this place has been the GO-TO PLACE from day 1. It is not just one meal that is good, it is not just a couple small things, IT IS EVERYTHING! If you go to Chili's and you did not order the bottomless chips and salsa... you did not actually go to Chili's. I have never, and I repeat, never have gone to Chili's without getting the chips and salsa. It is a perfect little starter for when coming it. Talking to everyone, sharing some chips, and if you finish all of them very quickly... you can ask for more! FOR FREE I am 10 toes down when I say this...Chili's bone in and boneless wings can compete against any restaurant wings. It can even go against places that are only known for their wings, Chili's are right up with them. They have a ...
