The blonde, bubbly, type-A store owner of Uptown Country Home, Jenny Grumbles, is not one to mess around. She became interested in storage auctions when her friend Adam sold her a unit of broken furniture. Jenny bought the mess for $1,000 and sold 20 pieces of revived contents for nearly $5,000.

Jenny has been trying to devise a cost effective mechanism for buying units ever since. She believes she can take units that typical buyers don’t want and “upcycle” the materials into profitable merchandise. Jenny has been a Dallas store owner for six years and considers herself a handy-woman, designer, and business strategist.
