In my continuous quest for that elusive box of bottles stashed in someones shed, garage, etc.... I've come across a new area to look....LEGALS in the Newspaper....Does anyone know how this works? Do you have to pay at least the price due? Thx-Julie

Here's an actual ad from the Newspaper:

A place I have discovered is watching the local 75-100 mile Diameter area depending upon how much traveling you like to do and times the auction starts. I will look on Auction Zip for Auctions within that general area and for the most part a bit of research can tell you if the auction is worth your travles and even if There might be a few Others say the first is on a Sat then look based upon the first Zipcode location and do a search from there. I do stay close to my home base. Having a 4 bedroom home and ample extra storage in the 3 spare rooms, plus Attic! Nice that I bought out the family farm estate and retired keeping the old 1871 Farm House, VERY large rooms, nice for China cabinets full of bottles! My friends will take me by the arm and lead me away from furniture at auctions! They don't wish to help me carry it home!
But we could have worse habits.
