<p>[QUOTE=&quot;pearlsnblume, post: 4833792, member: 141&quot;]When&nbsp; I moved into this area on LI, there were a few antique shops and one antique mall in a town I moved from. Now they are all gone. Once ebay and online selling came to pass, no one went to these places anymore. So now they are either vacant or some store came in that we don&#039;t need in it&#039;s place ... I mean really how many nail salons do we need in one town?</p><p><br /></p><p>Also years ago, my area was chock full&nbsp; garage sales. I wouldn&#039;t have to drive all that far to hit 10 sales. Now they are far and few between near here and they have junk.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ruth, I pretty much feel as&nbsp; you do. Tag sales, yard sales, garage sales usually have items that people just need to get rid of... but there are those that do look up ebay prices and think they should get that much for items even tho those items didn&#039;t sell.&nbsp; I find stuff at estate sales as well but of late the stuff is new junk or in such bad shape, it is worthless.&nbsp; I am also buying much less. I do love the thrill of walking around the houses and homes to see what treasures may exist there.</p><p>I just hate paying so much for gasoline only to find bupkis.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
