So I was at home this Saturday pulling old barbed wire fence while my wife and son went out grocery shopping. When they got back my wife mentioned that we needed to go to the neighbors garage sale because they were selling kids toys. I don't care for garage sales but I begrudgingly went along.
Arriving at the garage sale I spotted an external framed backback. I've been looking for one for a while but hadn't made up my mind as to brand and features so I thought, what the heck it has Cabelas on it so it has to be somewhat good quality and its twenty bucks. When I picked it up DAMN it has either a heavy backpack or it had stuff in it. I mentioned this when I bought it and the lady at the sale said "Yep, theres a bunch of crap in it".
So I got home and here is a list of what my $20.00 bought
Cabelas Alaskan Guide Backpack
2 Entrenching tools with case
Waterproof map pack with pens and map protractor
2 Molle pouches
Military Bakelite Angle head flashlight
AA Mini Mag light with holster
Camelback Classic
Blue Foam sleeping pad
2 unused mini bics
2 boxes Coghlans Matches
Square rubber Military canteen
Flask style rubber canteen with metal cup
AA powered Panasonic Electric Razor
Nifty Scissors multi tool thing
2 unopened MREs (Beef Stew)
Wyoming knife, case, and two extra blades
Hank of 550 paracord
Assorted nylon bags for sorting stuff
Not too shabby for twenty bucks. I have a sneaking suspicion that this belongs to the ex or soon to be ex husband as I don't know any guy who would let gear like this go.
