    Default so...let's think WARM happy summer thoughts now...

    who's having a garage sale this summer....????

    ME...ME...ME....

    what can you do or make to go the x-tra mile for a few more bucks....

    i'm planning on selling plant starts (if i can actually get them to grow this year)....i am going to start them in half egg shells set in an egg carton...then when its time to transplant...in goes the whole shell....

    as soon as valentines day is over/easter too i am going to look for cheapo candies that i can re-package and sell at the sale....(kinda like a cookie bake)...which leads me to baked goodies... i will have lots of those.... don't know just what yet... and drinks too....
    i have 46 GIANT candy canes that i got for .01 cents each a few weeks ago...i bet i could unload them for at least .25 each...(then i won't have 46 GIANT candy canes... boo... but i guess that's probably a better plan anyway..i was planning on eating them)......

    and i will price all this stuff to sell so that the customers 'can't resist'.... (you know...it's better to make .10 off 10 people than $1 off one...coz then the other 10 people still have .90 cents to spend...)

    anybody have any more great ideas....love to hear them.......

    No garage sale plans for me. I am too far in the sticks

    I like your idea though!

    No one could find us!!! Yay for us...on the other hand a long time ago back in Ohio we had a yard sale and I also did a bake sale along with it.

    You've done them before where you live...yard sales I mean. If you found that they bring kids...cupcakes go well and also cookies. 3 cookies to a bag. Peanut Butter and Oatmeal ones are cheap to make. You know how many cupcakes you can get out of a cake mix!!! Maybe sprinkles on some or little candies etc.

    Sold several coffee cakes. Yep, they get hungry out shopping. This should do very well.
    Bank of America is THE godfather of Hell with Wells Fargo running neck and neck. When the world ends the only things that will be left are cockroaches, Walmart, Wells Fargo and Bank of America. Not necessarily in that order. The order remains to be seen.
