18 - Have a garage sale
I think that everyone has some things in our homes that we don’t use nor do we need. I would like to go through everything in our house and take an honest inventory of everything to put things in our sale that we just do not use or need. Here’s to clearing clutter!!
Okay - So Destry & I actually had a garage sale on 28May2012. We were all set up and ready to go by 8am, which is when we had people starting to come in and look at what we had to sell. Destry & I worked together to set everything up and sell everything. It was a very long, very hot day for us, but overall it was definitely worth the time that we spent in our garage that day. All the profits we made we are putting towards our new furniture that we have been wanting to buy for a little while now.
I heard that having a garage sale would be a lot of work and stress. Well, it was a lot of work setting up and being alert the whole time people were in our garage shopping. But I honestly would do it again. We were able to get rid of a lot of stuff that we just didn't need to keep any longer and at a good price for people too. Anything that was left over (that was not of value that we still felt we could sell later) we took to Goodwill and donated.
It felt good to clean out our closets and get rid of so much stuff that we just do not use. So, overall I would say that our garage sale was a success for us!
