LAST TUESDAY, MY BUDDY, HIS SONS AND I WERE OUT HITTIN' SOME ANTIQUE SHOPPES ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF L.I. THE FIRST PLACE WAS CLOSED, THE 2ND PLACE HAD BOTTLES....NOTHING TO UNUSUAL BUT RATHER PRICEY. THE THIRD PLACE WAS THE CHARM (3RD TIME LUCKY).
I PICKED 2 BOTTLES FROM A SMALL SHELF INSIDE THE DOOR ASKED TO PUT THEM ASIDE WHILE I LOOKED AROUND. THE WOMAN SAID SHE HAD A BUNCH OF BOTTLES IN THE BASEMENT IN A BIN WHICH HADN'T BEEN CLEANED OR SORTED TO ANY EXTENT. SHE TOOK ME DOWN THERE AND SHOWED ME THE BIN WHICH WAS OVERFLOWING WITH DIRTY OLD BOTTLES. I STARTED PICKING THRU PUTTING STUFF I WANTED IN ONE PLACE AND THE THROW BACKS IN ANOTHER. MY BUDDY EVENTUALLY CAUGHT UP WITH ME AND MY EXCITEMENT AND WAS HELPING ME WADE THRU THE BIN (HE COLLECTS BOTTLES TOO, BUT PREFERS NOT TO PAY FOR THEM)[
]
AFTER ABOUT 30 MINUTES, I HAD SELECTED ABOUT 38 BOTTLES. I WENT BACK UPSTAIRS AND TOLD THE WOMAN HOW MANY I HAD. I ALSO MENTIONED THAT IF IT WERE MORE THAN 46 DOLLARS I'D HAVE TO COME BACK THE NEXT DAY OR BORROW SOME CASH FROM MY BUDDY. SHE DIDN'T EVEN LOOK AT THE BOTTLES OR COUNT THEM. SHE GAVE ME A BOX AND SAID "HOW ABOUT $2 A BOTTLE?" I TOLD HER "THAT'S MORE THAN FAIR...I MEAN THESE 40 BOTTLES WERE ALL NEW TO MY OLD BOTTLE INVENTORY, SO I FELT I WAS IN A GOOD POSITION TO PAY, LOAD UP AND GTFO! LOL!
I GOT A NICE SELECTION OF LARGE, MED AND SMALL MOST ALL EMBOSSED
