nice elegant curtains

cream color, there's white and gold too

showing some curtains we got, still alot more designs and colors

showing some set of curtain panels with white sheer in our living room

i wanted to post some pictures that we auctionsed last month but i always forget about it. As i said before my husband and i loves going to auction as we can bargain for sure, if we need something for the house like things that is not in need right away like curtains or chairs or sets for gardening, we always look for auctions. Able auctions is one big auctioneer or liquidator company that we always go to, they usually handles office, industrial machineries, and police stuff and many more.

Its just that sometimes its too much though, i mean not with the price but the quantity you will get. You wouldnt belive it, since we need a new curtains for the house, so we went auctioning last month, for the price of $300 we auctioned 300+ panels of brand new curtains, still in wrapped and are all very nice and elegant draperies, we saw the price in one of the curtains thats still in the package the original price was $31.00 each panel, amazing isnt it? We plan to send like a hundred in the philippines for my family, we kept like 60 for us and we will sell the remainings, we will have a garage sale maybe next month and i posted too at ebay canada. Well, if anyone is interested just contact me hehe....we got many more not just curtains, but bbq sets too, its all brand new, you can check some posting at craigslist canada and ebay. We dont need alot, so why not making money out of it then, in a way i can help others, its all brand new and the price is cheaper than in the malls or stores.....hmmm now i'm selling here hehehe.....

my 50 bucks auctoned stuff

All for those boxes are just 50 bucks, and its all brand new and still on the package. OUt of those boxes i got 6 boxes of different kinds of bbq tools set including 8 pcs bbq stainless ones with aluminum cases, 24 big beach umbrellas, 12 really nice stylish beach umbrellas or for patio too, 4 umbrella holders, 5 very nice arch trellises, 8 electric rotesserie, tons of brushes for bbq grills, 3 boxes (6 pcs per box) bbq cleaner and a big box of all beach toys for kids. Crazy huh? my husband and i dont know where to put all those stuff, its too much for us so i post some in ebay.ca and craigslist hoping to earn abit money in return, and some we gave it to our friends and neighbors as a gift and ofcourse half of it will be send in the philippines for my family. Imagine how much we saved out of all those stuff, i guess if we buy it at department stores it will cost us thousands of dollars. If you have patience and endurance for bargaining, you can find a good stuff and might earn abit money through auctioning. One way to bargain and its really a good deal, isnt it?

Tips for bargain hunting

Bargaining is a good way to cope with the crisis that we are facing today, we dont necessarily cut things we like' i mean like clothings, shoes or things that we love to collect, except foods though. BUT one way to bargain is to cut or stop buying designers clothes or things that are branded. You can can still buy branded one, just try to look online like craigslist or ebay, the price is cheaper than the displayed one in the mall, there are alot second hand htere too which are alot cheaper ofcourse.

There are some stores too that offered very cheap in price such as Dollarama, they sell everything you can see in the store for just a dollar and not more than that. Another one is the Dollar store, you can find things that are valuable too for just a buck. Aside from that, to add in the list is the xs cargo, you can find branded products for a discount prices there.

You can bargain alot if you buy second hand, you can find alot of products that are still usable and in good condition, such as in value village, liquidation world, salvation army, thrift stores in which you can help too as mostly the proceeds will go to charities.

Auctioning is one great way to bargain too. There's alot online auctioning, but my husband and i loves to go to auction site where we can bargain much more than online.

So i guess thats it for now. Happy bargaining!

Auction day....

me and my husband went to an auction place today, mostly are police stuff, but we went there for police vehicles. It's my first time auctioning and I had fun, there are nice nice couches, chairs, tables, paintings and bicycles which are sold for just a few dollars or hundreds, i told my husband its really a nice way to buy things, like for some bicycles was just auctioned arround 50 dollars to a 100 dollars, wow amazing, there was a nice set of racking chairs which was sold for only 60 dollars and it seems those racking chairs and foot rests are still new, and there are some stuff really sold for 5 bucks, isnt it amazing? Actually there's a lot in there, from kitchen stuff, for gardening, pumps and flooring too. But what fascinate me most are the vehicles, there are some really really good cars which are just sold from 700 to 11,000. Actually we won one, a mini black van which was used as a recruiting vehicle for police and just 170,000 kilometers and had a little rust at the hood because of the decals, probably the water sets on under the decals thats why got rusted a little portion of the hood and it was just a 2003 vehicle. the inside is clean, it runs smoothly, no major damage, the body and engine are perfectly good, well, to summarize all up, the mini van we got are still in good condition and we bought it for just cheap price, it was really a jockpot for us, really nice car and i like it. It's a good way to look for something that you can bargain on, though mostly are second hand but you can find things there that are still good. I told my husband that i might get use to this, hehhehe....well, we plan to go to an auction again on march, mostly all the contents for auctioning are from L word production, which was a popular tv series that has been stopped, there will be designer clothing and shoes, jewelries and many more. Hope we could find good stuff and bargain again.
