    Default Wanted to thank everyone for the help and update

    Thanks for helping me w/ pricing and such for my yard sale...

    I wanted to give y'all a general update. I had some re-sellers drop by and I made some deals but I sold a lot of my stuff.

    Total today was right at $400.

    If you add in my sales from Craig's List from this month I've sold a total of $1,000!

    Yea us! So that $1,000 saved off of our $3,600 remodeling bill.

    Thanks again for the help.

    Just in case anyone is curious...I sold a few CDs at the $1 rate and then sold 100 CDs to 1 person for $50 and 40 DVDs for $30. I sold the Thomas train stuff that I orig. asked $200 for on Craig's List for a total of $125 (sold to 2 customers). Not to bad.

    Gotta love a garage sale!

    I too unserstand how important it is to be flexable with prices at a yard sale.

    After all you a) want to get rid of the stuff and b) you want MONEY.

    You did great!
    The math never lies, budget in INK!

    Amount of Free items 2012 $391.33


    Debt #2 12/31/12 CC $901.88
    Debt #3 12/31/12 $3648.83

    Madness, mayhem chaos...my work here is done!
