Bargains at West Texas Rehab Auction

One of the good things about Abilene is the West Texas Rehab (okay, so it's in other places too). And some of the big events in Abilene are held to support the Rehab center. This weekend's Auction is one such event. 


For those looking for bargains at the Auction I've done a bit of calculating in the food category. I'm not quite sure why some of our grocery stores aren't donors but the options for good meals are abundant. As of Friday morning (1/17 at 10 am) the best bargains (Computed at (Value minus bid) divided by Value) are:


Towne Crier Shrimp Peel #352  --Half Price! **
Copper Creek Catering #362  --Half Price! **
Hickory Street/Victorian Attic #372
Don Enrique's #368
Desserts in San Angelo (Halfman's cakes) #353
Tenderloin package in San Angelo (Zentner's) #358
Golden Corral  #364


A couple of offers have already received bids equal to or greater than the value listed:
Perini's Steakhouse
Skeet's Texas Grill



There are other bargains but these were the easiest to quantify and the most accessible in price.

I've just gone through the current bids. So if you're looking for the biggest bargains consider these:
$500 worth of services is going for $50. Items 617 & 659
Only $2500 for ownership of a timeshare package. Item 764
Some of the best bargains are in Media Advertising packages that are currently listed at around 80% of their value.
Looking for a miniature horse? Only $235 at present.
How about renting a tent at 70% of retail?

Make that "Media Advertising Packages" at 20% of their listed value (that's a discount of 80% off).

    I am also "the favorite uncle Gary"  
    because 
    I always told the nieces and nephews that I was. Worked great until one of them realized I was their only uncle Gary.
