Garage Sale '08

Dsc_0237



We had a very successful garage sale today.  As Erick was hanging up signs for the sale these two ladies pushed on the brakes and swerved their van around and found me.  They bought about a third of our stuff.  They must have been at our place for over an hour!  One of those ladies had to call her husband to bring his truck because they couldn't fit it all in their van :-)  And those two ladies kept coming back!  They were so funny. During the first hour of business the driveway was packed with people.  Cars were parked in the middle of the street blocking traffic.  It was crazy.  We even got a visit from the Avilas.  We made them take some of our junk. 



I didn't realize that Erick was hiding in the garage taking pictures of me.  It is kind of amusing because every picture he took I have one hand on my "money bag" and the same intense face!  And yes, I did make it through the day without yelling at any of our customers  :-)

  2. Holly,
    I don't really know what I am doing. I don't really care how much I make but I just want all the stuff gone! But we usually make way more than I expect. For pointers ask the Vegas. They are the pros! You definetly can use my money bag :-)
