<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 185847, member: 78"]Hi,</p><p> When my MIL moved down here 10 years ago, she had a huge yard sale. Out popped 45 matching snack sets. She used them a lot but always at engagement parties. She had no time for paper plates and plastic cups. She said who is going to buy these, no one has party stuff anymore. Well a dealer friend of mine was there and bought all 9 boxes of the set. I did not tell her that I made a deal with him that if he bought all of them from her I would give him a REAL discount on what he really wanted. 100 pieces of Fostoria American pattern went to him for 5 bucks each. He made out, she was thrilled and so was I. The only snack sets I saved where 20 pieces with marijuana leaves on them. They were the 50s and I do not know if someone designed them on purpose or it was an accident. I got 100 bucks for each set.</p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
