Today I stopped at a yard sale and the people owned the lot next door. There had been a gas station with a house. I asked the lady if they'd consider letting me metal detect and got an immediate NO. My husband doesn't like anyone on the property. Me, to myself, so how about all these yard sale people.
I've noticed a lot of old houses get taken over by renters or poor family members. I'm going to buy a carton of cigarettes, some Mountain Dew, and some candy and wait till the latter end of the month and offer a choice of a free gift to metal detect. Cigarettes will only be one pack and two if I find anything. I know everyone loves Mountain Dew because I used to own a vending machine and couldn't keep it stocked. Diet Pepsi...forget it. It could be offensive to offer diet Pepsi.
Oh, the yard sale lady, I told her jokingly that if she said yes, I'd be her friend, LOL. I guess she has enough friends. I sure don't or I'd have more places to detect.
