What was I thinking?

garage sale

We are having a garage sale this weekend. We’ve been planning for weeks, thinking we could get organized well since we allowed so much time.

Yea right….

Nicole (my neighbor and friend) is still in her garage setting things up and listening for things that go bump in the night….

Relax lady, you’ve got yourself a fine guard dog!

Anyhow, consider therapy up front if you ever decide to have a garage sale – you’ll need it afterwards.

Hopefully the millions I plan on raking in this weekend will make up for the hassle. Anyone want an old TV Guide, some old paint or 14 gazillion used stuffed animals????

    Today wasn’t as good, we made maybe $50. It’s better than nothing, but where are the mommies looking for ADORABLE little girl baby clothes? They are not selling….

    Wow Kim, that is great! You must have be having some garage sale! In the garage sales we usually have we only make 1/2 of that in the entire run of the sale. You must be doing something right! Good luck tomorrow (or should I say today, LOL!)

    Thanks Kim and Vered, thanks for visiting and commenting too!

    Well day 1 of the sale wasn’t too bad. A few crazy hagglers but otherwise we made around $95 today. Not as much as I hoped but better than nothing. We’ve got 2 more days so there is still hope.

    Ha that’s why I never bothered with a garage sale… just haul everything to Goodwill. Good luck.

    Well If I did hear or see something I had a plan of attack. I could use my old fondue set or one of the million flower vases as defense:)
