Truckful of Treasures

On Saturday, Jef went to an auction at an antique shop. But they weren't selling antiques. Just the junk out of the shed in back. But Jef was thrilled to find some swingin' bargains.
He bought a lawn edger for $2, and they threw in a snow blower for free.
He got three sections of triple wall insulated chimney pipe, which he was very excited about. (No, we don't have a wood stove or anything else that requires a chimney.)
Other bargains included a fertilizer spreader for $2, a dresser for $6, and he also bought some shelves for $4, but was required to take away everything that was on the shelves, too.
And there were all kinds of treasures on those shelves. My favorite was an Incredibles DVD, but that CD of The Best Darn Drinking Songs Ever was pretty good, too. (Anyone need 100 pocketknife holders?)
The other stuff, well, there was a lot of it. Some of which we have yet to discover a name for - or a purpose.
Here's a picture of Jef looking through his treasures which almost covered the floor of a U-Haul truck.

All for a total of $20.
(Eat your heart out, Kendra. ;)Everything you can think of, including the kitchen sink.
