Twice a year the Visiting Nurses of NJ has a rummage sale, one is this weekend. You can find bikes, furniture, books, clothing, etc.. A few years ago, I picked up a Mongoose BMX bike for $30.00 and a Schwinn 3-speed for $25.00. It’s worth the drive.
The Boston Heist is a nice looking, carry-all bag with a great name.
“The bag’s 24.5 litre zippered main compartment features a large cargo space complete with four-pockets, and a padded sleeve for 17-inch laptops.
