    Default Yard Sale Success!!!

    We did a huge clean out of the room over our garage and I thinned out my cookbooks, books, kitchen stuff, and DD brought all her stuff and we made over $500. Not too shabby considering the most expensive thing we had was $25. I gave quite a bit away to neighbors, too.

    The rest is on our porch waiting for the DAV to pick up. The house feels good without all this stuff!

    The money will be added to our mad money for our vacation in November

    Congrats on your yard-sale profits!
    Money in your pocket, house de-cluttered, some aching muscles and mess, and a GREAT SUCCESS!
