Things You Should NEVER Buy at a Yard Sale – Butch’s Top 10

You see a great looking bikini that is just the right size... HOLD UP!!! Remember what parts of the human body these touch bare. Those parts are not too sanitary on a lot of people. In fact swimsuits may be worse than undies because swimsuits end up getting pottied in sometimes... Just sayin!

Feet are nasty, and I think most people will agree that shoes are one of the things everyone knows to stay away from. But your fancy may get tickled my a nice pair of skates, and then before you know it the bottom of your feet will have a continuous tickle, and you will not like that!

I think most people are smart enough not to buy a random toothbrush sitting on the end of the table at a yard sale, but I am still worried. Worried because they make those fancy vibrating $200 jobs these days. They come in boxes, and may end up used and back in a box. $5 for a $200 toothbrush may be tempting, but the thought of swapping spit with a complete stranger saves you that five bucks and your lunch!

Although it wont hurt you if someone elses poop covered tool touches your poop clogged toilet, there is a chance that some elses poop got on the handle of that used plunger. Think about it... If you have the throne super plugged up, you have to push pretty hard, and that causes splashes, and therefore nastiness on the handle and then on your hands... SICK!!!

This, like a plunger, is a second hand nastiness item. You may find that Pam Anderson sex tape you have scoured the globe for, but the problem is what may be on the packaging of said sex tape. So, dude watches, touches, and the removes the tape from the player. Whatever he touched while watching is now on the tape. Not worth it!

I know weed is legal in Colorado now, it just doesn't seem right to be picking it up at a yard sale. But this one doesn't just go for recreational drugs. I also would advise not buying prescription drugs because you will go to jail, and over the counters are probably not a good idea for safety reasons either.

This one is a no-brainer, I know. But I wouldn't even buy an unused sex toy at a yard sale. It's just one of those things that you have to buy from a reliable source. This is for HER sake, not yours!

Here is another thing that most of the time you wouldn't think twice about, but it's rare finds at yard sales like blow up sheep that peaks people interests. So you see the sheep and think, hey, that would be so funny to give to my best friend as a joke. Problem is, Billy Bob that just sold it to you may not have had it as a joke... Then it's no joking matter!

No one is going to sell used condoms (I hope) so that's not what I am talking about. Even a brand new box for a quarter of the store price is a horrible idea. These are the only safety between your wiener and a horrible disease. You MUST treat them like your friend. Would you buy a friend at a yard sale? Didn't think so!

Everyone knows not to buy a mattress at a yard sale, but what covers said mattress? You guessed it, our friend the sheet. Weird things happen on a bed that is covered with the sheets you are about to buy. I don't care if we are talking the greatest Egyptian cotton ever for a dollar and the best laundry soap on the market... Do not buy used bed bug, body fluid covered sheets!
