One of the primary joys of paying a visit to a yard sale is unexpectedly coming across a total bargain. Antique dealer Bruce Scapecchi of Des Moines, Iowa, can certainly attest to that, as he loves to mix business with pleasure. The 69-year-old claims to visit thousands of similar events over the warmest months every year. However, in summer 2013 he discovered a unique treasure for just $1 at a yard sale right in his hometown.
