The $5 bag sales...

...can be cost-saving.

ME?

Today, when I'm done typing this, I'll go downstairs to the Wunderground Second-hand Store in the basement of the Senior Center.

May stuff a bag full of men's clothes. Go through the pants...

On Sunday I stuffed a bag full of books.

40 books worth over $581. 29 of them dealing with poetry worth over $386. I'd say I did well.

However, I need book shelves. Plus, it's time to cull some books and take to the library free-cycle.

Same with underwear. I had 4 pair set aside that I added to my rotation; but, overall there are 2 or 3 that need to be cut into rags. In with the slightly used; out with the worn and weary.

Before I went traveling I started to go through boxes of "who-knows-what". Need to start again. Other things need to go as well. Most of my "life" is second hand. I acquired a double mattress over a week ago and it's working out fine. And I never did get the rooms rearranged to my satisfaction after sub-letting to a friend. That was back in 2012.

So, call me a bag man all you want. It's cheaper than WalMart.

And saving allows me to travel.
