Garage sale

September 1st, 2007 at 05:07 pm

I had my first ever garage sale in this house. DH had lots of old tools he wanted to get rid of, so he priced them cheap or said, what will you give me? We had a ton of free stuff to just give away also.
The sale started at 10, so we got most lookers at about 9 am., but I had priced yesterday, so we were about ready for them.
We made $405 which will go towards my challenge money. Drum roll please!!!

Prev. total $19,643.00
today 405.00
new total $20,048.00

I did it, I hit $20,000!!!!!!!!!!

    Thank is fantastic. Would you have one again and did you sell anything that you thought wouldn't sell? You guys did great.

    Yes, I would. Most of the sales were made the first hour. My husband had lots of tools and he sold them very cheaply. They all went. I had some household appliance things (bread machine, coffee machine, etc) and none of them sold at all.
    I did have a casio keyboard that I thought would sell for $40 ( I paid like $125) but it didn't. It did however, provide us music at the garage sale all morning.

    That was a nice profit. I am sure having the stuff out of the way is almost as nice as the money.
