Bargainbingo

There are many great ways of entertainment in the wild North unknown to the rest of the world; car bingo, walking bingo, cow bingo, radio bingo, bingolotto, searching for moose antlers in the woods... And then we have auctions!

If it's summer and someone died there will be an auction. A bunch of shabby-looking, mainly middle aged to near-death, drive through half the province bringing their foldable chairs and backpacks full of coffee and thin Swedish bread to sit in front of a house full of the life collection of worthless crap of some poor fellow that has just passed away and listen to some local well known person trying to be witty while calling out item after item for hours and hours. As you can tell it's a whole lot of fun! :) It's one of my mom's big interests so me and Nitis decided to hop in the car and tag along.











Nitis behaved perfectly, playing with other dogs as well as children and just taking it easy watching the people and the things. I returned home without opening my wallet while my mom got a great deal on some old dolls, a cake tray and a bunch of cables. :)
