    Car #2! Plus goodies.

    Picked this pile up today. Guy took 50 bucks for it too. While i was looking for the house i came across a metal basketball net and a kids scooter. One of the bigger ones with bike tires, and two metal patio chairs.

    Ontop of that, while i was securing it to the trailer, I heard someone behind me yell "DON'T FORGET THE CAT!" i look and this guys walking towards me. Looks under and goes "Ahhh good its still got the bread loaf cat. Im a core buyer eh, just makin sure you know to take that stuff!" so i asked for his info and got myself a good contact! Was a win-win-WIN kinda day. The stars must have aligned let me tell you. Usually the saying goes If i didnt have bad luck id have no luck at all!

    Im Not trying to boast or anything here with this and my last post. just giving you guys a moral booster that the deals are still out there!

    Dude-- You're not bragging.. just sharing.. Awesome score for $50 bucks.
    Getting a core-buyer contact is worth its weight in GOLD too.. Today.. was a good day!
    Keep swinging man! Looks like you are on a roll!
    I'm so into scrapping.. When my Steel Toe Boots Wear out, I cut the Steel out of them and recycle the Toe!

    Thanks buddy. I'm pretty stoked about the contact. We only have one guy that comes to the shop that buys cores. Havent been able to find anyone else. Im looking forward to comparing prices.

    The last couple days have been good actually. Gonna try my luck at curb shopping tomorrow too. Gonna take a drive around our city's industrial area as well.
