Yard Sale ReCap!

I took this picture with about an hour left to go. A few more people showed up and bought a couple razors, deodorant, and shampoo, but basically this is what I had left at the end of the day.

My Yard Sale Grand Total Profit- $280! For a one-day, unadvertised yard sale I think I did pretty well!!! I had three tables full of stuff and at the end of the sale everything I had left fit on one table.

Items That Didn’t Sell Well

Kotex Liners ($0.50 each; sold 3-4)

Pledge Furniture Wipes ($1.00 each; sold 2-3)
Splenda Tablets ($0.50 each; sold 2)
Just For Men Hair Color ($0.50; sold none)

Everything went really well, no horror stories here! I believe I only had three people who haggled for a lower price and I gave it to them. A handful of people asked where all my stuff came from and I just told them that I like to shop and use coupons and that I didn’t have any more room in my house to store the stuff. I also had a few people comment how they had never seen cleaning and health and beauty items at a yard sale, but that it was such a good idea. The people who realized the great deal they were getting seemed to buy at least $20 worth.

My co-worker is thinking of having another yard sale at the end of the month. I still have a ton of stuff that I just didn’t have time to get together and price for this sale. So, I may be back at this again at the end of the month.

So, what am I doing with the $280.00? First thing, I put aside $28.00 (10%) to give as a tithe to our church, then I took DH out for his birthday, and the remaining money is going towards my BHAG!
