wonder why YOU can’t be the one that finds something uber-valuable at a garage sale or Goodwill?

Well, at least I can rejoice in the fact that today, we picked up our own little piece of valuable at the upstanding aforementioned establishment. What is this treasure that I speak of, you ask? Well, I should be honest and say there’s some truth tothe saying one man’s treasure is another man’s junk. (Did I get that right?) Anyway, we up and purchased a CAR WASH for Zoe’s Hot Wheels cars. 99 cents, baby! It even has little circular sponges that smoosh the car through with a flick of a switch! I’m sure it’s vintage. Probably circa… 84. PROBABLY, the only one of its kind ever made because of a single quality control inspector who dared glance away from his work. It’s probably even worth millions. BUT, it looks like a PIECE that was broken off of a larger toy to me. Sooooo, because I think it is worthless, after Zoe is done with it altogether I will put it into a bag of toys to “take back” to Goodwill. Only to read in the paper the next morning that some shmuck picked up a toy for his nephew and ended up with a 1.4 million dollar treasure. The only one of its kind.
