Anna was looking through her things, because it was that time of year again, the annual Star Hollow charity rummage sale. "You better be doing better than mom. We agree to each donate a box of clothes this year." Rory came in to check on her.

"Oh yeah," She nods to the box on her bed.

"There are three pairs of socks in here." She picked up a thermal sock.

"They're terrible. They have small rubber dots on the bottom to stop you from slipping on the floor, but they hurt your feet." Anna explains why they were in the box. Rory drops the sock back in the box with an unimpressed face. "I know it's better than mom. She probably has nothing in her box."

"This box better be overflowing in an hour." She pointed down at the box before going back to check on their mom.

"I haven't worn you a while." She pulled out a black top from her closet that had faded red luscious lips with fangs sticking out of them. The words bite me underneath the lips. "But, that is not fair to you, since I have to wear a uniform five days of the week. We have had a lot of good times." The shirt was faded for a reason. Honestly, it should be thrown away since it had a few holes in it. "Ah, you'll make some punk rocker happy." She folded it up and put it in the box.

Her mom ran into her room. "You better hurry up and fill that box or Rory will do it for you. She just blindly took a big chunk of my closet." She ran out of the room to go back to hers to make sure Rory didn't take anymore.

"Oh my god," Anna started to throw all the things that she wouldn't change into that second into the box.

When Lorelai first told them she was hosting the rummage sale this year, Anna was over the moon. She loved the rummage sale. She always found hidden treasures there, like Miss. Patty's pink dress. She thought she would be able to get first dibs on everything. Now that their house was overflowing with rejected crap that they had to organize she wasn't so thrilled. To shop at the rummage sale and to organize it were two different things.

"Sweater?" Rory pulls the item out of a garbage bag.

"Over here." Lane put her hands up.

Rory throws it to her. "Jeans?" She pulled it out.

"In the back of you," Lane points to the pile behind Rory.

"I hope people wash these clothes before using them." Anna looks at all the clothes that somehow end up on the floor.

"I would hope people know to wash whatever they get at a rummage sale." Lane said.

"A big furry purple thing that could be a hat, a toilet paper cover, or some kind of dirty hand puppet," Rory held a weird fluffy purple object.

"Mystery box over here," Anna put her hands up to catch it and put it in the box.

Luke enters with a garbage bag in one hand and a paper bag in the other. "Hey."
