My brother Jeff went back to get this fishing tackle box up for me — $1. Spent a good hour scrubbing it and getting some (but not even most) of the rust off. I realize I have a bit of a “box” problem. I rarely meet a box I don’t like — especially ones with compartments.
@eudora My mom and my brother wanted to get all the rust off, which meant that the paint was coming off or changing colors, which was throwing me into a tizzy —haha!
@illinilass We must be kindred spirits! On this trip I bought 6 boxes — three new and three vintage and only one of them is a gift for someone else! One is huge but the rest are small-ish to small-medium sized. It’s an obsession!
@wiesnerbeth I try not to go until the last day. That way I never know what I missed. Don't *need* anything anyway. So I figure if something is still there, it needs me.
