Yard Sale Time!

I must admit that I like the thrill of Yard Sales-ing. Wading through other people's old junk for that treasure that will complete you, or at least hold your interest for 15 minutes. Today we hit a few in our neighbourhood. It was a nice walk with the kids. One sale had a big free bin with all sorts of cool stuff. We scored some toys for the kids, but what I was most excited about was some cassette tapes. I got "Nightflight to Venus" by Boney M, a Beatles Greatest hits 62-29, and a random Led Zeppelin. I was pretty pumped about the first two. Later, I had to run an errand in the car, so I popped in the Boney M, only to be greeted by some semi-melodic piano music. Upon further inspection I saw that the tape was actually Crystal Gayles' greatest hits or something. In fact, all three tapes were not as advertised. Arggh! I suppose the adage holds true... You Get What You Pay For.
