1. [n] a storage pile accumulated for future use
2. [n] something kept back or saved for future use or a special purpose
3. [v] have on hand; "Do you carry kerosene heaters?"
If something is good, buy two, plus a spare and then another 'cause if you lose one you'll still want two plus a spare. . . and the mini too

One man's junk is another man's art/treasure. My parents also came through the depression and WWII. Mom had a Mormon background.
