I collected sugar packets as a girl..... (I'm DYIN' laughin' as I type this... I've never told anyone that... I was NOT the smartest girl... sugar packets, good lord... lol.. *sigh* good times.. )


I have a coin collection that I add to now and again, put aside for my boys... I have some comic books put away for my boys as well.. some baseball cards are in a safe deposit box along with some jewelery that their Papa left them when he passed...
I myself collect Asian art (some old, some modern) and Blue and White Porcelain.. my entire livingroom is done in blue and white.. I have a couple pieces that are antique and I'm sure are worth bread.. but they've been handed down and I'd never sell them even if they were worth thousands..

** Do shoes and purses count? .. if you added up the total cost of my purses.... lol.. hoooo-weee! y'all would think I'd lost my mind... COACH on mines! :cheeky:

I help my dad build and collect 32 ford hot rods. Not really a collection, but he has 3 of them plus an old hupmobile (think an old cadillac from the 30's)

Couldn't really tell you on that...I figure a Memphis,TN paper would be the highest demand as far as the Elvis deal goes.

I also have newspapers from memorable events, the earthquake. bonds hittin #700, etc., THe coolest one is from the election that Bush stole from Gore that was printed too soon and it declares Gore the winner!

I collect Bells, too. I call them "my Grandma's Bells" because they came to me when my grandmother died, and my other grandmother adds to my collection.

IF any of you repeat this, I will never tell anyone anything again, but I have BOXES AND BOXES of Beanie Babies. My mom and I (and every kid we could round up) would go sit in the freezing cold at 5 AM waiting to get the new bears. Lord help me.

I collect rocks and marbles, and shiny things. I put them in little pouches, or boxes and horde them. I wish I were joking.
Shiny things huh?...at least it fits the crow part of your name, lol.

I collect bongs. My favorites gotta be my handmade bamboo 3 piece set (from my pops time in thailand) & my teak wood pipe.
