  • About_me

    We have been in liquidations since before we were married. We use to spend our Friday night dates at a local liquidation store. We got hooked. Shortly after we were married in 1974, we went to work at that same store. 9 years later we opened our very own liquidation store in Baxter Springs, KS, known as "General Surplus" back then.

    In the spring of 1984, we opened the Columbus, Ks store in the old Big Smith garment factory. Within a couple of years we opened a second store in Galena, KS. We were located on Pine street in Columbus until July 30, 1991 when a fire set by burglars totally destroyed the newly remodeled building. Within a few weeks, we had acquired a new location, completely remodeled the building from top to bottom and were open for business by September 15, 1991. The residents of Columbus pulled together donating food, equipment, office space and good old country friendship while we remodeled. Teens from our church painted, scrubbed and laid carpet so we could open for business. We are still in the same location.

    We are true liquidators. What we have now we may never have again. Or next week another semi load may pull up to the dock. The products we offer come from all over the United States from various companies. Some are bankruptcies, Quitting business, Company's moving, Central Distribution Center consolidations, Insurance claims, lost or damaged in Transit. You never know what you will find because we never know what we will get.

    Fall brings cooler temps. Basketball, Baseball, Football, just outside fun all together. And you can find everything you need at Bluepennylady

    Three Hearts jogging suit
    Holloway jackets and pants

I attended the google base class presented by Judy and I have to say she really knows what she is talking about. The class was jam packed with useful information and presented in a way that was easy to understand. Judy goes out of her way to be helpful, and I look forward to any classes she presents in the future.

Judy helped me with Google. I was lost and the help she gave me was outstanding. I was also honored to have been chosen in March of this year by her as an experiment to re-work my store here and get more customer traffic. What we have been doing togather has really worked and I’m very grateful for all I’ve learned from her. It’s allowed me to make more professional listings in my store and with what i’ve learned from her I am going on to help others in this venture.
Thank just doesn’t seem to cover it my friend

Judy is one of the biggest reasons Bonanzle will be a success! Aside from management who ensures we have the tools to run our businesses, Judy teaches us how to use them and expand on how the internet plays a major role in what we do everyday. Without her expertise, we would be lost and I know many feel like she singlehandedly is the driving force in keeping us all motivated and productive in our efforts to drive Bonanzle to new heights. She is what I consider an ALLSTAR not just some days, but everyday. I hope she never leaves Bonanzle because we would be lost without her!

THANK YOU JUDY! WE LOVE YOU!

If Judy/blue isn’t on the Bonanzle payroll she should be. She has helped me more than any tool at Bonanzle. She gave up so much time to help me with google base it was incredible. I had been trying to work it since Feb. Not only did she help me she contacted support to explain issues I was having. I was lost with attributes until I read one of her post in the forums. It was so step by step I was able to do it with ease. She is a wonderful asset to Bonanzle.

If my granddaughter hadn’t come over and got it done for me, I would have just given up.
Thank God there are such nice people in the world. Ones who go “above and beyond” to help the less knowledgeable of us.
I feel like I’ve meet a Angel tonight and I thank her from the bottom of my heart.
