Pot – Mushrooms – and Crack at the Goodwill Store

I went to my local Goodwill store before I headed to lunch today and saw something for sale that I had no idea what it was.

It was about 4 feet tall with dark plexiglass panels and looked to be from maybe the 1970’s?

Reminded me of R2D2 or Dr. Who.

Now, I was quite intrigued.  It had a name.

PHOTOTRON 2.

I looked that name up on my iphone.

HA!

It is a machine for growing  pot in your closet.

The dark panels hide the light from peering eyes.

“No worries, Ma!  I will put my clothes away myself.  You work too hard, Mom.  I am happy to help you out.”

I went back to the store after work tonight, just to see if anything worthwhile had come out in the hours since my last visit, and I wanted to take a couple more pictures of the pot growing machine for my blog.

Too late.

Apparently, the machine sold quite quickly at what I thought was a rather steep price of $49.99-

Dude…

I feel sorry for my brain some days – the sheer amount of STUFF that I have to go through to find anything of value can certainly be mind boggling for the uninitiated.
