A small roll away tool cabinet. $10.00. This will become my Coleman repair center...

I also scored a nice REI internal frame back pack with a candle lantern, sleeping pad, water filter, first aid kit and a tent ground cloth. for $5.00.

Nice score. All that stuff individually is worth more than your total cost. A good day of hunting even if you didn't score any Coleman stuff.

Nice haul. That waffle iron was a great deal. For some reason I have a soft spot for those old waffle irons, or maybe it's the waffles, not sure.

It was a real good day. We hit a swap meet and a bunch of garage sales. There was 150 garage sales in 40 square block in Everett today. It think we only hit 1/4 of them. I also got a new office chair for $5.00 and my wife got some vintage sewing stuff cheap.

With that many garage sales in the area, it had to be good pickin'. All those items you got were steals! Doug

I did see some Coleman but it was over priced. Lanterns for $50-100 each. I passed on the red and chrome water jug for $5.00.
