After moving our stuff, we decided we have way too much of it. So why not have a garage sale right? Exactly. Earn some instant cash (garage sale money - you know to spend at other garage sales) and then donate the rest for the tax right off (the hubs perk). Well we drug our feet as it just seemed like to much work. But then we got motivated Thursday night to open up the garage on Friday morning. It took a bit but with all clothes $1 we priced and set up in about 3 hours. Not bad uh? Well, we have never done the city wide before but we will again. We didn't sell anything big but we sold a lot of junk. I guess it goes to show you one man's junk is another man's treasure. Works for me! Of course, I did have the cutest helpers in the world. Maybe next year they can run a cookie/lemonade stand. We always made a killing at our stand when we were little.
My helpers did find a few things they just couldn't part with. A couple videos, a puzzle (that we did while people shopped), etc. They've also went out to the garage after the sale and gathered up a few things.
I guess there is always next year.
