Georgia Pecans

Approximately 18 in a small bag.

Or a lot of small bags in a large bag.

(If people want small bags then the quantity of the large bag will be reduced.)

Spring form Pan

It's been used (obviously) and it's a little worn, but still works if you don't have one.

Soft Eye Glass Case

Alien Sun Glasses

I think these have skied a few mountains in Utah/New Mexico.

FILM

Actual film.

Jo?

Glad Plug In Refill

I have NO IDEA what smell they are.

Best guess: vanilla

Pocket/Key chain Knife

it's small

"Leg Tips"

In real life, these are the "feet" of a chair...

This is how I used the two that are missing:

(That's my decorative shower curtain hanging on that rod.)

Massagy Thing

Like SO MANY THING...this too is USELESS when you are ALWAYS ALONE!

These are GIANT paper clips

I do not NEED to get rid of these.

But just in case someone needed some.

I used these...

to make a set of plates for Alma the Elder (aka Jake):

STILL AVAILABLE:

This is a women's Fossil watch.

If you purchase a new battery and put it in the back, it will likely work.

Once it starts to work I think it has a sun/moon scene on it depending on the time.

If you want this for your pending birthday let me know and I will purchase said battery, gift wrap and deliver at the party held in your honor.

Any birthday present request trumps regular claim request.

All of the following items need to be removed from my house immediately!

If you claim it, please tell me when you will pick it up or how you plan on retrieving your item.

If you are lazy, allergic to turtles, or just plain don't want to come to my home, please CONTACT ME and see when I will be driving by your home/work/gym/veteranarian's office and I would love to carry all this crap in my car until I see you. I would likely rather find a trash can.

Cleaning the dust off any of the items WILL cost you extra.

IF any of the items are left unclaimed without retrieval arrangements made by THIS Saturday, they will be dropped off at Goodwill.

Now...on with the show:

This is a Pampered Chef heart shaped bread tube.

I bought it decades ago and never used it.

Claim this and make me something heart shaped for Valentine's Day.

This is a radio/cd/tape player.

I'm sure it will work.

Right after you come to my house and dig through a few dozen boxes to find the cord.

I am positive it is around here somewhere.

It also takes batteries.

This is a weekly calendar.

You write your schedule in it.

The inside looks like this:

Oh, look...my birthday is on a Tuesday!

This is a set of four bowls.

They are silver.

They are heavy.

I bought them thinking they would make unique baking pans for cakes.

Yeah, not so much.

This is an UNUSED can of shaving CREAM.

There is nothing wrong with it.

My skin doesn't like cream, it prefers gel.

This is a women's Fossil watch.

If you purchase a new battery and put it in the back, it will likely work.

Once it starts to work I think it has a sun/moon scene on it depending on the time.

If you want this for your pending birthday let me know and I will purchase said battery, gift wrap and deliver at the party held in your honor.

Any birthday present request trumps regular claim request.

This is a frame.

It will hold a 3.5" x 5" -ISH picture.

By "ish" I mean that the 5" part is a little off.

A copy of the photo of me is available for a fee.

This is a partially used bottle of CK One.

It smells fine.

It has a screw on cap...no spray thingy.

If it had a spray thingy I am sure I would have used it on more occasions.

This is a unisex perfume/cologne.

This item is also available for birthday gift wrap and delivery at the party held in your honor.

Any birthday present request trumps regular claim request.

This is a cell phone purse.

It's from China.

My phone doesn't fit inside.

I doubt I would use it if it did.

This is a photo album.

It's not fancy.

It's red.

If you squint you can probably see more details on it's cover

This is a cork board.

It is 18" x 24" in size.

The big red thumb tack is not included.

This is a Blackberry COVER.

Actual Blackberry is NOT included.

I recommend this item for humans with little to no hair on their head.

This is a Fujifilm FinePix A205 digital camera.

It is broken.

I don't know how to fix it.

If you want to tinker around with it, it's all yours.

I can't find the cable that connects it to my computer.

It has an xD Picture Card.

I might take it to Wal*Mart to see if there are any photos on the card.

Then you can have it too.

If no one claims this it will go in the garbage.

Does anyone know where to recycle an item like this?

OK, claim away.

If you have questions about any of the items listed above, please contact someone else.

OK, fine...you can contact me.

Or just make an educated guess, you probably know more than me anyway.

And check back frequently as new items are sure to be added often.

This week on The Eternal Garage Sale:

#1: A black w/turquoise polka dot bag. It is hanging on the doorknob to my closet and almost touches the ground. That will give you an idea of how big it is. ** CLAIMED**

#2: (4) Window treatments: they are about 36 or so inches long or something like that. If you really want them and want me to actually measure, let me know. ** CLAIMED**

#3: (2) sheers - hunter green (they sort of go with the above window treatments): ** CLAIMED**

my official statement for their length is "really long" - proven by this picture of them hanging over my closet door:

Post a comment, let me know what you are interested in.

Jo, this one made me think of you...but then again, so did the red bustier bag.
