I Have an Addiction

It's the Amazon return center in my area. Boy, the deals. They close the store on Thursday and restock with all kinds of good products...then each day, the price goes down. On Wednesday, everything that is left, is 2.00!

My rule is that it has to be useful for me to buy it but of course that leaves a lot of leeway. I bought garage door weatherstripping. 16 ft for 4.00. ok, boring but necessary.

i have to limit myself or I can go crazy in there.

@Fishy it appeals to my hunter gatherer instinct..and i love a good deal. boy do they have them too.

They call it Krazy Binz up here and one of the outlets used to be in the same strip mall as a client of mine. The traffic was so congested in that area they had to move. I never went in to see what was for sale but lots of other people do.

@hippyjoe1955 wow...it is so much fun. it was really busy at first. i never go on the first day because i don't want to spend 14.00 per item

@akindheart I really don't know a thing about it other than it has moved into a large retail space far away from my client's office. I saw another one in Red Deer AB so I assume they are all over the place.

They have two of those near me. One is a free for all in bins and people rip apart the packaging and make a horrible mess of it. It’s way too overwhelming for me, but my little sister loves to dig through stuff so I’ll go with her sometimes.
The other one is laid out nicely on really long tables, but you can’t open any packaging so you have no idea what’s inside a lot of them.

@itsok ours you can take 4 packages back and they will open them for you. i found this red Christmas tablecloth. cloth. i couldn't tell the size so i didn't get it. went back the next day and found it. it turned out to be perfectfor my table. i went back for the garage weatherstripping and found it too

Those stores are crazy! You're (almost) literally panning for gold, but they do have some great finds!
Thrust · 56-60, M
@AnotherWeirdo I just found out there's one next to my bank. It is unmarked
akindheart · 61-69, F
@Thrust you got to go...let us know what you find.
akindheart · 61-69, F
@AnotherWeirdo what they do on Wed is line up the upcoming stuff so you see it. pool heaters, foot spas..nothind like that is left by Tues/Wed
heavyone2 · 61-69, M
Hmm... "automatic dog walkers...2.00 bucks while they last"....... wait......do they make those?...lol.
akindheart · 61-69, F
@heavyone2 you never know. LOL.
Thrust · 56-60, M
Do you have a site for them? There must be one near me
akindheart · 61-69, F
@Thrust i can't say the name of mine because i think it is unique to my area.
