garage sale success!

The garage sale was a huge success on Saturday. We only had it for one day and anything that wasn't sold was donated to Goodwill. To our surprise we made a killing, by a killing I mean we made enough to replace the desk we sold and to purchase some much needed shelving and storage in our office/music room (more of that to come). I was worried Friday night that we wouldn't get enough foot traffic because we live in a tiny neighborhood on a dead end street. Saturday morning I got even more worried because it was incredibility windy and I thought none of our signs would hold up. Lucky for us it all worked out. I even posted a listing on Craig's List Friday afternoon and was surprised when a lady stopped by looking for specific items that I listed on it. I didn't think anyone would look at that posting. 

Overall, we are very happy that we sucked it up and spent a day in our driveway with our crap! I wish I would have gotten some pictures but sadly I didn't. 

Any successful garage sale stories of your own?
