I have occasional found a few things for my collection and/or trade stock, but competition is fierce among Minnesota and Iowa and Wisconsin beer collectors to locate the bargains. At least one BCCA member sets up a booth to sell each year.
This year I had time to go on Friday, and located two flat top cans in good condition. I saw plenty of other beer stuff, but the large majority was overpriced and/or junky (and still overpriced!)
Yes, 7oz flats may not be the most exciting, but the price was excellent, and even though I collect 7 and 8 oz flats, I ended up needing this variety of can (239-21) for my collection. So score x2.
I will have the extra one with me when I attend Swap A Rama next month in St. Louis.
