I can’t believe that one person had a hand full of stuff spent time contemplating having to pay $2

[@edie4321]

I guess you don't do this type of work. There's a lot of that. I can only imagine what the economy has done. Now there are so many in "real" desperate need of bargains.

What is your first name taco stack?

As a retired cop people always ask me the worst possible crime…I always respond: Cheapskatery!

THIS EXACTLY

[@deboraheubank9430]

Mark what the wood is! It takes the right person to walk up and see it!!

[@marthaeaton3830]

Enjoy watching all your videos! FYI, Maine has banned plastic bags for almost 10 years now 😟

[@joycef8443]

👍👍👍👍

[@marilynmack6233]

Those longer black walnut boards would make great fireplace mantles. I am surprised they have not sold.

[@castironkev]

How dare you cut out my beautiful face 😂😂 See ya soon!

[@susanhagen9505]

I can’t believe that person wanted you to take $1 instead of $2 , is crazy . She had quite a bit stuff she wanted to buy

[@beverlycunningham4364]

Love your channel. Addicted.

Another great video. Major score on the golf eggs 😆🤣

When I deployed to Liberia there was no running water or electricity in the capital city but they had two cell phone providers. That is how they access the internet. All the phones were really dated, something that very few people in the US would be using. The technology trickles down to emerging nations and economies that are not as robust as the leading industrial countries.

[@patanne3680]

Hi Taco. Cool swap meet. Looks like you sold a lof. Nice. Pa does not and suburban areas now. Nice find on the golf balls. Hugs for Salsa. Love ya

[@kathystewart8509]

Enjoyed😊

[@imakatoh3593]

Good deal on the golf balls. It looks like your door needs new hinges or releveled. We had to do it with one of our buildings. Decanters and most lower value glass had its time. One possible way to unload some would be to give a little table space to it. If it doesn't sell donate/recycle.

[@dorisbern6539]

Taco thank you so much for the Great adventure Hope you have the rest of the week in Check, give salsa a hug and let her run, let her run.😊😊😊😊😊

[@doloresrozman5612]

Our grocery stores have bins outside to put recycled items(plastic bags, aluminum cans,plastic, then trash.) I would say most people bring their own tote bags,insulated bags/ coolers.

[@carolineloeser3071]

That board would make a beautiful mantle. You could stand them up in there to get out of your way? At least until you find the correct buyer. Thank you for sharing this video.

[@bettyfeliciano7322]

Taco! You didn’t do too bad today. I few suggestions…..label what type of wood it is bc some folks don’t know. With you rugs/ carpet…open them up to show their patterns. If you don’t sell the boards you can use them as shelves in the warehouse. Glad you found the golf balls & the baby pool. Salsa is going to love splashing around in it! I think that putting stuff in deep boxes makes it hard for people to see what is in it. Maybe smaller items put in a flat so it can be seen better. Blessings always to you & Salsa! 🙏❤️

[@user-zk5je5ct9e]

New Mexico stopped using plastic bags during covid and it's better for our environment. We have big winds here in Southern New Mexico and the countryside was completely White with Walmart bags etc.

We haven’t had plastic bags for 4 years in NY. No more bags in trees. Library is collecting bags for a new bench from Trex

[@joycef8443]

Our library in Wilmington did the same thing!

[@user-bz4qx7vw9h]

I would buy the black walnut boards in a second. The boards would look great as shelves in a kitchen.

[@scrapkat67]

That’s exactly what I came here to say. If I was local I would absolutely buy that live edge board. It’s exactly what I want for my kitchen.

[@user-bz4qx7vw9h]

@@scrapkat67 It's so hard to find good live edge, at least where I live. I hope you are able to find something similar in your area.

We hit 100 for the first time this year. Ugh. Thank goodness for ac 😊

Hi Taco make a shelf with 1 piece of wood, under those 3 windows behind you and make more storage for yourself.🙂

[@alanbirkner1958]

I use store bags for garbage. I usually bring my own. Some cities in Illinois charge for bags. Tina, Al's wife

Hey Taco. I have enjoyed this video. By you dumpster diving got you all those golf balls is a plus. I hope that you and Salsa have a great day Taco.

[@susansmith6680]

I've always been interested in making a table with epoxy and wood. I think they call them "river tables" that would be nice.

[@joycef8443]

I’ve seen beautiful sofa tables in Santa Fe for $1200.00 ..ten years ago! Bits of coral and turquoise in the “river”

[@roserollins9800]

It's Taco Stacks Tuesday at the Swap Meet ❤

[@heathermurray9939]

The man who is making a bench for his grandchildren might want that wood

[@Julie-qw5ld]

In Washington State we have paper bags only and the stores charge for them.

One board can make a great shelf . ..especially one that nice .

Great golf ball save! I love the black walnut boards, could you use them in your house?

Fun flea market day ✌🏻

UNBELIEVABLE SOMEONE TRYED TO SAY $1! That Grindes me!

It was mentioned before but you need a sign with info about the boards.

Can never have too many golfballs lol! Thanks for another video.

Thanks for sharing!

Great Video!

[@Dardrum]

If I lived close, I would buy a few walnut boards from ya, I could use them, sadly I live 3000 miles away. As far as plastic bags go, I used to use them as trash bags, but now I have to BUY garbage bags since the grocery store bags are unavailable. Silly lol Good video btw

[@heathermurray9939]

You should do a video with you & your brother playing golf across your pond

[@ppurgett]

He did last year

Taco make some shelves in your shed out of the wood then you can pack boxes on them just a thought 🤔 Sydney Australia 💚🇦🇺

[@verettejones9510]

Hi Taco. We still have plastic bags here were in Illinois, I don’t know about all of Illinois. I have reusable bags I use . It’s a shame about the wood pieces not selling. Maybe you could put them on one of the local market place selling platforms? The picture is ok but it’s kinda creepy maybe that’s why it won’t sell . I kinda like it . Take care . Hope your week is going great. PEACE. ✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️🥰🥰🥰🦮🦮🦮🦮🦮🦮🦮🥰🥰🥰💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

Upstate New York doesn't give plastic bags. Just found your channel. Liking it so far!

I'm jealous of your temps. It's 91° and headed up to 100° this afternoon. I am not looking forward to August. Texas is great in the winter but hot in the summer especially with the humidity. I hope you got your tire situation worked out. Thanks for sharing your flea market adventures with us. Hugs for Salsa! 😊🐕✌

[@josieflynn8442]

Wish you could send Ireland some of your heat 😅...it's 16 degrees here and rain !!! No sign of summer yet !!

[@thekingtroll2]

In my area of Ohio, those boards go for like $12 a foot. People buy the smaller ones to make a mantle shelf or free hanging shelves. When my aunt died, her entire contents of her house were NICE. but not my style. I had one yardsale and it made about $800 but it was a disaster. The very first day people were picking up items that were priced and asking me for like 90% off the tag. "Uhm, no, this is the first day and I've been opened 30minutes". A few people cursed me and walked off. My stuff was CHEAP. A coffee table $10, two end tables $5 each, etc. I just wanted some room in the house to work on painting the rooms and sorting only what I wanted to keep. I had a woman argue that my pots and pans for only $1 she saw at other yard sales for a quarter. She left mad that I didn't let her have them for twenty five cents. After the first day I didn't open up the second day. I got $600 out of one very nice cherry dining room table and 8 chairs. Some guy asked me if I'd take $100. When another guy heard me, he said "I'll take it for $600 ". So I sold it to him and he was thrilled. It cost about $1,400 years ago and was show polished new looking. I gave the rest away, all of it rather than bicker about pricing. I love watching Taco video's. To get to see all his stuff and see what he see's along the way. Bringing in the outside world means a lot.

[@ppurgett]

Some people think that if they complain enough, they will get it, then they turn around and sell it for way more than you had it originally, hustlers is what I know them as

[@beforeigaze]

Yes, NYS doesn't have plastic bags and it's a big pain as many of us used them for small trash can liners and litter bags as well us other uses. Now I have to save all my take out plastic bags....not a good deal

[@pinkerbot]

Why not?

[@beforeigaze]

@@pinkerbot Because everyone recycled those free plastic bags for other uses. Now you have to purchase small plastic bags if you need them. And grocery stores have started charging for the paper bags that replaced them.

[@pinkerbot]

@@beforeigaze but if you have your take out bags, then what is the problem? Think about all the plastic bags that do not end up in the nature!

[@beforeigaze]

@@pinkerbot Due to the cost of takeout, I have a lot fewer than I used to have. If they don't want plastic bags in nature,, then I shouldn't have to pay for the paper bag replacements

[@bigkahuna6277]

In New Jersey a lot of stores now give you a paper bag but grocery stores mostly you have to bring your own.

[@NewEnglandExplorers1]

Massachusetts most towns band plastic bags, but sometimes still allow them, but it’s really going to the town that’s really up to the town

[@heathermurray9939]

In the uk ours are called " car boot sales " not flea markets. Car boot sales in different towns and cities have them mid week & Saturday & Sunday Sunday.

Adelaide Australian here. We "banned" plastic bags... to be charged .30c a piece for one 😂 they were a bit bigger and supposedly stronger. But they werent. Now we have all plastic bags banned and onto brown paper or the reusable zipper cold type bags which a quite big but a pain as if youre not capable of hauling up heavy bags full of partially full of groceries you need alot of these big bulky bags. Its a not win situation really
