A Success

Our yard sale started at 7 am yesterday morning and cars were already parked outside of our house at 6:30.  My stepdad buys storage units so all of this was not our junk.  This was our first sale and we really didn't know what to expect.  Lee fired up the coffee pot and we headed outside.  It was a bit chilly for October in Alabama but it quickly warmed up.  There are some hard core shoppers out there.  All but 2 out of the 16 cars we had bought something.  There was the cutest kid who desperately wanted this Darth Vador mask and he kept trying it on and pushing the buttons on the mask.  He then proceeded to cry for quite a while when his grandmother wouldn't let him have it.  Poor thing.  But all in all it turned out really well and we made just over $160.  It was in our garage so everything is separated on tables so we really didn't have to clean up much.  Maybe we'll have another one soon.
