Garage Sales

I LOVE going to yard sales and looking through other people's stuff...

**One person's trash is another person's treasure**

I HATE, HATE, HATE having yard sales!!! I especially hate having yard sales with my husband who likes to give things away for practically nothing!!!

I should preface that last statement with... Bob loves to throw things out (like normal people) and I love to keep things. I admit, I am a clutter-er! I love to keep things and expect to get a lot of money for things I paid a lot of money for! I hate giving things away too cheap, especially to strangers.

I had to come in and vent just a little because I just went outside after getting coffee to hear Bob giving away a baby swing for only 10 dollars. It originally cost like 65 or 70 dollars. Couldn't we have sold it for $20? *breathe* Guess I have issues!

ok... credit to Bob... he just came in and asked how much for an item... my Nana's plates... *tear*tear* I agreed to put them out there thinking no one would want them. Even though they are just sitting in a box in my basement, I didn't REALLY want to sell them. They were Nana's. But, they are just sitting and will probably always just sit... but they were Nana's... my inside turmoil! *tear*tear*

...just went to check and see if they sold, the man changed his mind. *smile* p.s. Our neighborhood started our yard sale at 7am! 7am?! People actually showed up before 6:30am!! My goodness... next time we need to do 8am! It is Saturday!! :)
