Remarks: lots of sales, we ran out of time instead of out of sales--first time this year.
Funny story: Joe was trying on the fleece vests at one of the sales, and he reached in one of the pockets and said, "Whoa! There's stuff in the pocket," and pulled out a kleenex, couple of candies, and a couple of dollars worth of change. The husband holding the sale was standing nearby and saw all of this, so Joe handed him the contents and said, "You're selling this for 50 cents?" The guy started laughing, and Joe put his hand in the other pocket and pulled out $8 in bills! He gave it to the seller (who was looking somewhat shocked)...and the guy gave Joe both vests free of charge! Gail, who was standing nearby and also saw the whole thing, then told the seller about the shop vac Mick bought recently for $1 which turned out to contain several dollars' worth of change when he emptied it. Like we told the fellow, "You just never know..."

It's missing a knob and needs tightening and a few minor repairs. Looking at its styling, this is a newer model than the one I have, probably early 60s (??) I will probably sell this after letting Joe fix it up. Definitely don't need 2.
