Mother Superior and I both would
rather spend a day in Home Depot and Borders Books than go to the
opera. For her 39th birthday she wanted to go to a salvage
warehouse in Baltimore she'd heard about, called Second Chance Salvage.
She was apprehensive about going there by herself, so I agreed -- it
was way better than the alternative present she wanted ... me
doing molding.
Second Chance is just a few blocks from the Ravens' stadium in the Inner Harbor, and a snap to find. Located in 5 separate warehouses bunched close together, it is is huge. According to the guy, it's the largest salvage outlet on the East coast. I doubt there's a single furnishing, or building accoutrement you can name that you can't buy here. If this is your cup of tea, and you're near Baltimore, I highly recommend it. If you're from out of town, there's a Holiday Inn Express right there. Click here for slides of some of the pictures I took. I was hesitant about using the flash, so the focus is not always the best, but you'll get a good sense of things. What did we buy? Nothing. There was a brand new Sub Zero 601R refrigerator for $1995, and A 601F freezer for $1495 that we'd have been sorely tempted to buy, as a replacement for our 401 series that's about to crap out, but they were sold. |
