Vintage Ateco cake decorating tips (Saugus)
A assortment of very vintage Ateco aluminum cake decorating tips. How do I know these are vintage? They're packed in a small Stop & Shop 29 cent sherbet container. I've never seen that version of the Stop & Shop logo before, and I've been here for over 60 years. Also, when was the last time a container of sherbet cost 29 cents!! The aluminum applicator tube shown on the cover of the instruction sheet has long been lost to the ages. There are numbers and a scripted "Ateco" on each of the tips. Despite their age, these tips are clean and in great condition. Easy pickup in Saugus close to Target and Kelly's Roast Beef, generally on most days between 10 and 4.

Totes Travel Tie Case (Saugus)

4 drawer Bluestein filing cabinet (Saugus)
Professional office metal filing cabinet from the Samuel Bluestein Company of Boston and Malden. 4 drawer model with two traditional file drawers (11 1/2 inch height) and two smaller half drawers (5 1/2 inch height) instead of a third file drawer. The file drawers included the metal support brackets for hanging files and a bunch of hanging file folders to give you a jump on getting stuff organized and filed away. The unit is 15 inches wide, 26 1/2 inches deep, and 40 inches tall. It's a solid and somewhat heavy item, built to last in a professional office setting. You will need a second person to help you load/unload this item. I purchased this many, many years ago from a previously famous "used office furniture" store (that I'm completely blanking on the name of) in either Allston or Brighton. When I bought this it was already a veteran of office use, with splotchy paint but great "bones". I stripped the top and sides and repainted them with a brush (I didn't want to use spray paint in a tight inside room), so there are some brush marks. There was always something on top of it, so it never bothered me. Easy pickup in Saugus close to Target and Kelly's Roast Beef, generally on most days between 10 and 4.

Holiday Housewares storage pieces (Saugus)
Promised
*** LAST CHANCE - if not taken by Monday, August 10th it's going, going, GONE. *** Assorted plastic storage containers manufactured by Holiday Housewares. Some pieces are brand new with attached price stickers, while the larger pieces are used. 2 - 1 cup 3 - 2 cup 6 - 4 cup 3 - medium 3-section 1 - large 3-section 2 - 10 cup (missing 1 lid) 1 - 14 cup bowl Some of these have price stickers from the old Building 19 discount store, and were probably manufactured before things like BPA became a concern, so I would be wary about using these for storing food, but they would be great for storing other things like craft supplies and things in the workshop. Easy pickup in Saugus close to Target and Kelly's Roast Beef. Preference given to earliest pickup.

Treadmill; adjustable standing desk (Stoneham)
Offering this amazing Steelcase treadmill and adjustable standing desk. I love it, but it cannot make this next move with me. If you can take it by 8/12, it’s yours! Dimensions: Table: 38 x 30 x 24-50 inches Treadmill: 23 x 63 You will need to adjust/ reconnect the cable running between the treadmill and the desk if it gets knocked out of place. This has been no issue for me and can show you how to do it! The treadmill is heavy but it rolls so one person can move it out. The desk will require 2 people to move! You will likely need a minivan, truck, or van to transport them. I was able to fit either the desk or the treadmill in an SUV, but not both at once.

Unique "half" Ceramic Containers (Saugus)
Promised
A pair of cobalt blue ceramic containers. In the shape of a coffee cup (and saucer) that's been cut in half and given a flat back. They were designed so that they could be used on a window sill as a small planter. A traditional coffee cup would fall off (duh). There are built-in mounting holes on the back side, so they could also be attached to a wall or other flat surface. They can be used to hold or display things too, if you don't want to use it as a planter. Measures about 7 1/2 inches wide, 3 1/2 inches deep, and 3 3/4 inches tall. There is a small chip in the paint on the rim of one of the saucers. Easy pickup in Saugus close to Target and Kelly's Roast Beef, generally on most days between 10 and 4.
