I've tried several antique stores before and have always come away empty handed. Today I stopped in at a small store in a very small town in SC and asked the lady if she had any old type safety razors. She said that she thought she had one. We walked to a cabinet that she said had mostly "guy stuff" in it. She opened the cabinet and there was another clear plastic cabinet inside and I saw the head of a razor. I couldn't tell what it was but it looked like a TTO type head. She pulled it out and it was a Gillette Slim! Better than that was it had a price tag of $4.00! I couldn't believe it. This only happens to you guys! I contained my excitement and gave the lady the $4. Then another lady walked in and the First Lady told her that I had bought her razor. I asked her if she had any more and she said she did, just not here. I told her I come through there every couple of weeks and she said she would bring them to the store in case I dropped back by. Needless to say I was excited and wil be going back. Mine ought it home tonight and cleaned it up. Here Here are before and after pics. My wife didn't understand what all the excitement was about but I knew you guys would understand!
Man I am so jealous! Great score! I've been to a TON of antique shops, flea markets, and garage sales and always come up empty
I usually find nothing around here either. I had more luck in Maine, 3 hours away. I wish I had more money at the time.
