Sea to Summit garage sale

A local outdoor gear company, Sea to Summit held their garage sale on last Sunday.

I picked up 8 pairs of Smart Wool socks at $5 pair at start. I got a few of these socks at the last year's garage sale, and I fell in love with them.  Feel soft and comfortable, so I got more this year.

I also bought a Smart Wool merino wool T-shirt for $20, but this was disappointing. Compared to my unbelievably soft, yet outrageously expensive "Seventeen.5 T" from iBex, it feels like wearing a piece of sandpaper. It is just too itchy for me to wear, so I might pass it to our dog who loves a piece of clothes to sleep on.

The T-shirt wasn't a good pick, but I am happy with a pair of merino bottom which I got for $30.  They are 3/4 length for some reason, and although I would preferred a full length one, a shorter length might be handy, if I am going to wear it on top of a full length merino bottom as an extra layer.

A few other goodies have been scored too, including a pocket trowel ($3) for going to toilet in the bush and a small folding kitchen sink ($2) to wash the dishes, vegetables and fruits, and of course a fly reel at a camp site.

As for the last year's sale, I am happy to picked up some treasures at such low prices.
