Bingo Is Back, Baby!
Estate sales and bingo halls: apparently, your grandparents were onto something. This week, Damaris is making the case for two decidedly old-school ways to have a ridiculously fun weekend. First up: estate sales. She answers Nikki’s many, many questions about how they actually work, where to find them, what things cost, and why wandering through a stranger’s house looking for vintage treasures has become one of her favorite hobbies. But the real surprise comes when a friend suggests going to an actual bingo hall. What starts as a nostalgic Saturday outing quickly turns into Damaris and her friends laughing their way through a game they are hilariously bad at, and Damaris leaves completely sold. Five dollars, a couple of hours with friends, and something totally different from the usual dinner/drinks? Bingo officially makes her top five fun experiences of the month. Nikki and Damaris also get into why it can be easier to connect with friends when you’re actually doing something together, what estate sales can unexpectedly tell you about a person’s life, and why there’s something especially fun about trying an activity that feels a little weird, a little nostalgic, and nothing like your usual plans. So maybe skip brunch this weekend. Go poke around someone’s old house. Find a bingo hall. Sometimes the weird idea is the good idea.
