Sale of the Century...NOT :)

Today was a beautiful Spring day full of sunshine and a wind from the wild side. But it beat all the rain we've had over the last few weeks. Our neighborhood had their Spring garage sales. Ken and I decided to get rid of some of the stuff we had that was just hanging out here. At 7:15 am after being up late last night setting up we got moving --setting the wheels in motion for our sale. The madness began at 8:30 ish when we opened the garage door. I remember to take pictures after our "power lunch" from McDonald's---you can see our drinks in the picture above. :) Of course that would be the time EVERYONE would decide to stop by.

A couple of pictures showing the layout of our sale.

We were lucky enough to be outside all day and

have a nice amount of shade to hang out in while

waiting for customers. The coffee table (see below)

sold and Ken was so excited since no one looked

at it the last time we had a sale.

The best part was that a young couple bought it

for their new apartment which the ink was barely

dry on the contract. It's always nice when you

know your stuff will be appreciated!

Here we have the main "sale dude" complete

with his pink wool cap and loofa. This was his

acctracting customers ensemble. Now if you

were driving by, you would stop if you saw him?

Right???

New sale strategy--"Fill a bag for $5.00. We had

one taker. Ken does the hat better than I--I think.

All in all it was a productive day. We made a little

"fun money" and got rid of a few things.

Now all we have to do is bag it up and get it ready

for the charity truck to pick up on Monday. The

sale coordinator set this up for those of us who

were in giving our leftovers to charity. One less

thing for us to do. YEA!

~Keep on Dreaming~
