Did You Do Any Black Friday Shopping?

Who went Black Friday shopping this morning? What bargains did you find?

I was as full as a tick on Aunt Leona the day after Thanksgiving...... and Mabel shoulda stayed home....lookit this sight for sore eyes...sure hope nobody tries to pull that thing straight back and it gets away from them, ole Mabel will whizzzz clean across the store
.

Then I saw a picture of this other 65 yr old guy in the paper this morning that left home to go get in line for  LAST years Black Friday Sale..evidently he  indured some prety severe conditions..lookitimnow...poor thing..not much left.

Now thats why it was just as well that I couldn't roll out of my bed this morning.  It's at times like this that everyone needs an XXXXL  shirt or sweaterr to put on when you need to wear your comfortable leggings with the VERY elastiic waist.  Just big long and oh so comfortable....nobody need know you had a weak moment of gluttony.  Take this one as an example....its big and beautiful...CLICK HERE to see this beauty

THE BUTTON BOX

The button box is sort of like an accordian except you have buttons on both sides. They are beautiful instruments with great sound.

This is one I have listed on OLA for sale. It was inherited from my husbands uncle who played it very well even though he was in a wheel chair. We were told by an appraiser that it was made around 1920 and the value is around $800.00. It is in excellent condition and is losing no air.

My husband plays a lot of instruments and he can play an accordian however he cannot play the button box like this one is as it takes special talent to play it like it should be played. This one is very beautiful and needs a good home while the condition is so good and it should be played to help keep it that way.

We have kept this in it's original leather case and in a climate controlled area.  The case is like new.

AUSTRIAN ANTIQUE BUTTON BOX MINT CONDITION REDUCED OR MAKE AN OFFER

Christmas Hint #25 -- Homemade Gifts

Homemade gifts add a special old-fashioned feel to Christmas. If it’s too late to make your own gifts, help support other crafters by purchasing their handmade items. You can also add a quick homemade touch to store-bought items.

One year I bought scented candles as gifts. It only took a few minutes to knit a ribbon and bow to put on each one.

Knit or crochet a washcloth to go with a store-bought bath set.

Make a homemade bookmark to go with a store-bought book.

Sew a carpenter’s apron to go with a set of tools.

Whatever you buy as a gift, think about how to personalize or accessorize it to make it even more special.

Here are the handmade items available at OnllineAuction.com

I do have a Life

I do have a life outside of the internet!

Besides selling on-line at Online Auction.com. I do have a personal life.The German Club (G.E.A.S.) that I belong to just celebrated their 40th Anniversary Party.

My Mother, her Husband, Aunts and Uncles were some of the original founders. Sadly, many are gone now but we do still try to keep up the traditions that they started and we still honor the Charter Members that are still with us. This event is only held every 5 years so it is quite the occasion.

I have been fortunate to be able to run their website and have just published some new videos of the event. We had a great time!
If you would like to view some of the just OK videos, you can view them at our site www.geasnorfolk.org.

Love the sounds of slot machines!! I'd spend hours a day in a casino if I could...just staring at the one-armed bandits and numbly pressing the spin button. But, since I can't afford to do that, I found a couple of fun online slots to play. Don't win any money.. but they sound the same!

~The world's first slot machine "The Liberty Bell" was invented by Charles Fey in 1899. (Thank you, Charles!)

 ~There is one slot machine in Las Vegas for every eight inhabitants.

~ An early machine gave out winnings in the form of fruit flavored chewing gum with pictures of the flavors as symbols on the reels. 


If slots are your passion, too.. then check out a few things from our pals at onlineauction.com :
