Yep I keep my eyes open and ride by a few good estate/garage sales
from time to time whilst on my bicycle. GW and SA are my stores of
choice, most of the time. Another good option are "ReStores" sponsored
by Habitat for Humanity (check the website for locations). "Farm and
Fleet" is another good store with very good prices too, as is "Big R"
(farm and ranch supply stores). Thanks <G>.

Sky, who can rarely pass a good bargain
