Before the G-Sale (all the goodies)
I was ready to go with my Cabela's hat and all
Jill, Dana, and I (Don't we make a great team?)
This what was left over. Quite a bit.
Wow! This past weekend was insane! But it was an insane good time!
We started the weekend off on Friday going over to Jill Hick's (Mike's Cousin) house to drop off all of the junk and PRICE as much of the junk as we could.
Dana(Jill's older sister) and Jill had been at it most of the day when Mike and I arrived. I was totally impressed with those two! They had everything priced... down to every last baby sock! If it were me after a couple of hours I would have just put everything in a bin and gave it all one price!
We ended up staying there from about 5pm to 9pm Friday night.
The next morning we arrived at Jill's house at 7am to set everything up and I had to finish pricing all the other stuff that I didn't get to the night before. So mostly everyone else set up while I priced. :( I felt bad but we all ended up getting it done and we were ready before the 9am start.
It was a long day and people came in spirts but, we ended up selling most of all the little stuff. Not too much furniture which we thought would go faster than all the rest. Go figure!
Early in the morning a man and his side kick came driving up in a beat up white moving truck. He started bargaining right off the bat. We know he was there to get stuff at a good price and resale it himself somewhere else. But, I think we all were very firm and handled ourselves pretty well.
We had a few downers during the day but mostly had great people that showed up.
All in all we all totaled a little over $800. Praise the Lord! Mike and I went home with about $150!! It was money we didn't have that morning so it felt great!
We had so much fun but, I don't think we will be doing that again for some time. Maybe in a couple more years when it's time to rearrange the house again.
