Spring Junk Bonanza 2014 - Shakopee, MN

We went to Junk Bonanza yesterday in Shakopee, MN.  We had the Early Bird tickets with the FREE bag - first 250 tickets sold.  We had hopes this year to be #1 & 2 in line.   When we arrived, we saw the same 2 ladies there as last year.  They were #1 & 2.  They are from Nebraska and lined up at 5:30 a.m.  We were #5 & 6 again this year.  




This event is HUGE with vendors on 2 floors.  I was too busy shopping and looking to take pictures.  However, I did take and opportunity to have mine taken with Cari Cucksey from HGTV show "Cash & Cari".  She had a huge booth on the 2nd floor with some great items - actually, reasonably priced.  I bought the most from her booth.  I was so happy to buy these Skookum dolls.  


I love them!  She said she "priced them to sell."  I'm just glad they were still there when I made it up the 2nd floor.  I don't think many people knew what they were.  I told her I was 1/4 Native and I collect them.  

Cari, actually checked me out and was very nice.  Here is a picture of us.  



It was another great show!  I left full of inspiration and ideas for my booths and shows this year.  

Blessings from Ringle, Wisconsin.

  5. What an event...surely it's more than a day's worth. Now you're a ' celeb,' how fun. We watch the same cooking shows and Cash & Cari, I regret to say, I have not seen. How cool to have your pic taken together.
