It seems like a simple question, but I really havn't come across any simple answers...whats the easiest way to sell bottles to raise a little extra cash? I have some extras (nothing rare, just fairly common stuff) and I wouldnt mind getting at least something for them...even a dollar or two...
went bottle hunting down at the creek today...didnt find any bottles (except a broken alka-seltzer) but i did find this..its about 2 1/2 inches tall..any ideas?
nothing special...just a generic milk bottle and a Canadian Cream Ale ACL from 1946....the milk bottle was found on top of a large pile of very old broken ceramic drainage pipes and the ACL was found in a patch of brush off the side....not worth a pennt but i had fun finding em
(ps sorry...
Anybody know where bottles can be sold besides Ebay? I thought it would be fun to sell off some of my duplicates, but nobody ever bids on bottles on Ebay unless they're rare or unusual. Anybody have any Ideas?
This was one of my first dump finds. Anybody know anything about it? ABM, says: "Liquid Stove Polish Manufactured by J.L Prescott co. New York" Any info??
When I used to go to the Clarence Middle School on the bus ride home I always used to pass by the Clarence Escarpment Sanctuary. Since there were old farmhouses nearby, I decided today to take a hike and find out. As I'm riding my bike down the road, I see in the woods a large rock pile-but no...

These are all my truly dug finds so far. I'm going back to the dump (hopefully) tomorrow, so maybe they'll be more. Probably worth $.25 for the bunch, but so what. Sorry I couldnt do a pic, but my mom's got my camera.

Went back to the dump yesterday. I dug a little of my previous hole (Got a 1930 O-I sauce) and then started a new one, in a much newer part of the dump (1930's thru 50's). This may sound weird, but this part of the dump hasen't really been dug much and since I collect the later stuff I took a go...
Just got a nice hoard of bottles from my uncle, untouched since 1981. He used to work in construction and dug them up on the job. Some are pretty nice. Should I post them??
Ok I didn't dig these, but I did have a $25 gift certificate from the local antique store so I figured I'd spend it all on bottle. here's what I got.
Nice Rexall Perscription
Just found a new dump yesterday...It's in a creek bank near an old house. Most of the stuff is from the 40's. Got a 1945 pill (?) jar, 1946 lotion bottle, and a corker shoe polish. It's definitely a dump. Most of the stuff was broken but I found a few wholes. There's suff buried so It's good to...
