One woman's junk, is another woman's treasure... Thank goodness! ha!

So Saturday, the fire department had a yard sale in their fire house. We all bought booths (or 2 booths in my case) and started getting our stuff together on Friday night. I had never fully moved out of my previous home after I had married Boyd. But because my parents are moving back, I had to get my "junk" out of there. I threw away a ton of stuff and probably should have a lot more. But I also had a lot for a yard sale.

In order to get rid of as much stuff as possible I put 25 cents and 50 cents on most of the items. I didn't have anything over $3.00 and that was for a rocking chair. I had clothes hanging on the wall for $1.00 a piece or $2.00 for a suit. Anyway, Saturday morning at 6:00 A.M. rolled around and people started coming in. I got rid of a lot of stuff. By 10:00 a.m. I put all my clothes $1.00 a bag. Have I mentioned I wanted to get rid of my stuff. It was all going to the free store afterwards anyway. By 12:00 I was getting tired of the sale. So I started giving stuff away. If they walked by and picked it up I would tell them they could have it. I had a big box of odds and ins for the kitchen and sold it to a lady for $1.00. The stuff that went the fastest was my books. I was very surprised. I had them 5 for $1.00 or $.25 cents each. They went quickly. I had about 100 books or so. I had plenty to replenish my table with.

All in all, I had a great day. Saw lots of people. Lot of old friends and made some new ones. And I got to do my favorite thing in the whole world... people watch! YES! And I made a little extra cash too. I was sure not to walk around to other people's booths, because I would've spend all my money!

Here are some pictures from the day...

Hillary and I! She came to visit with me at our yard sale. She brought her mom, Jenny, and the sweet lady who works at Hillary's home. Thanks for coming guys!

Just some of my "junk"

Here are "some" of the books.

3 tables full of "junk". Plus the clothes hanging on the wall.

The clothes on the wall. For some reason clothes sell better when you hang them up. It's true. As people would by them I would hang the others up.
