Our garage sale!


Our garage sale!, originally uploaded by somegoodgoing.

Our condo association was having a garage sale. We decided to take the opportunity to clean out our basement. The weather was perfect, it was mid 70s and sunny.

At the point of this picture, we had made $66.50! We were both pretty impressed since neither one of us has ever been part of a garage sale before. So we ended up at $68.50, which is better than if we hadn't done it, and we had fewer things to haul back down into the basement! Yeah! The president of the condo association said we might do this again in the fall. We have learned a valuable lesson, if someone shows an interest in something, you tell them a price, if they put it down, lower the price! We also decided that garage sales might only be a good idea if it is a community wide thing, you will get more foot traffic than doing this on your own.
