Garage Sale Success



We planned to start on Friday at 2 p.m. but the public had other plans. People were showing up as early as 11. Eric and I were scrambling to get tables set up in the driveway. We had our biggest rush before 2. Sat. things weren't quite as busy but we still did pretty well. It was a lot of work but definitely worth it.

Even though we got rid of a lot of our stuff we still ended up taking a load to the secondhand store here in town. We'd been talking about buying a little table and chairs for Carsen when we moved into the new house. I'd looked online and found a set similar for $25. This set was sitting out in the parking lot for $5. What a bargain!
