Anything For A Buck

Good morning.
The weatherman is calling for snow. Um, what else is new?
After my little tirade last night about living in an extra large size closet, I came to realize its not just a shelving issue. Its also because I will buy absolutely anything if it only costs a buck. Even if I don't know what it is, a buck or less, and I'll take it. Hell, I'll take 2 if there are 2.
So, I was going to post a picture I just took, of one of yesterdays dollar purchases from the new found junk store, but Blogger won't let me upload it, sigh.
Ok, can anyone tell me what it might be? Its knitted. About 4 feet long. Its open at one end, sewn at the other. It looks like a 4 foot long tube sock. The thing is, and this is the main reason I bought it I guess, it says Harley Davidson across the open end. If you put it on your head like a hat, the wording is upside down, so it's not a hat. I have never seen this before (that I recall) and figured it has to be one of a kind or at least rare, another reason to buy it. Its red, the wording at one end is black on white. So, it actually resembles a gigantic Christmas stocking. But, theres no loop or any way of hanging it. But you know me, I'll just jam a nail, tack or staples right through that sucker, if I decide it is in fact a Christmas stocking, or don't find the truth of its identity. Hubby's gonna have a rather large stocking for Santa to fill this year.
I feel like, in the back of my mind, somewhere buried in all that chaos, I KNOW exactly what it is, its just eluding me. It could have been a promotional thing, buy new drag pipes for Christmas and get them in this bonus cool stocking? Lord love a duck, what the hell is it?? LMAO
Another thing I got, same time, same place, same price, was this pottery heart wall hanging thingy. Its brown, its like a mold, made in West Germany, kinda ugly actually, but attractive at the same time. S.P had one exactly like it in her store, and I always looked at it and wanted it but could not bring myself to pay $13 or whatever she had it priced at, it was $13 or $10 I'm sure, whatever, it was too much. Coulda even been $8, but still, had it been $6 I woulda took it. But in my heart of hearts I knew some day, somewhere, I would find one for $1.
Well, I must go dog hunting now. Little bugger just took off on me when I let him out back to pee.
Have a lovely day!
