Happy Saturday Everyone! thank goodness for the sun!! after all the rain we had this week, today is filled with blue skies and sunshine.
I totally forgot that today is our community yard sale so last night my daughter reminded me. We both got up early and so far we've had a decent amount of people and sales.
My oldest daughter stopped by and I came in to make us lunch while they are helping customers.
Fingers crossed that we can get rid of some stuff and maybe make some money too.
Whatever doesn't sell will probably go to donation.
Looks like a lot of families are participating.
How's your Saturday going?

It was a nice weekend here too but not too hot. I'm not looking forward to hot and humid

@Marilynda1225 when I did yard sales during the summer during the community wide event is when I had the most things sell.

A lot of families participated in this one so there was a lot of traffic. I was happy to get rid of stuff and make a little extra cash, Usually my community does a yard sale twice a year but I haven't participated in the last few. I know some of my neighbors had stuff for kids and they always had people there

@shaggin I think the summer is a good time for yard sales. I think they do better than in months when it's colder

The yard sale went well and I was able to get rid of some stuff and make a little money. I was more anxious to get rid of stuff than actually do it for profit. But it turns out I did both

@Marilynda1225 That is great, I would like to make some money getting rid of stuff I do not need anymore.

I did get rid of stuff but wouldn't say I made a "bundle" of money It is nice, though, to put a little extra cash in my pocket.

I did pretty well, made a little money and now have a little more room in the garage. Our garage is the catch-all for stuff that doesn't have a home.

@Marilynda1225 Every inch in our home, basement, garage is a catch-all for "Stuff". My husband wants to move to FL. I said, sure when we get rid of half of this stuff.

Going OK, it is a nice day today and would be a good day to go to yardsales, but I was out all afternoon yesterday driving around and not really in the mood today.

Hope your blood work comes out good. I always dread doing those fasting blood work tests
Our weather was perfect all weekend.

It is good to sell stuff you no longer have use for. I hope you had a very successful & rewarding day!

Haven't done much on Saturday. Just had a relaxed day.
I wish we have yard/garage sale here. It's not that popular. That's a good way to get rid of old stuff and make some money;
