What is your best Flea Market/Garage sale, etc..pick up?

Love to hear any great deals you have found while rummaging through someones garage sale or walking around the flea market. Two great deals I have found: Paid $15 total for two APBA football card sets, 1969 and 1970 in mint condition (literally looked like they were shipped the week before, don't think the owner ever used them). Since I don't collect APBA, I sold them on ebay for a grand total of $245.00. Also picked up 6 Ripken rookie cards in great shape in a box of cards I paid $3.00 for. Also picked up an early career Mantle Yankees ticket stub for $3.00 at a flea market....

A friend of mine bought a pack of Maxx racing cards for a quarter and pulled a mint autograph card of the late Davey Allison worth about $400.
