"Garbage Sale"

With Pioneer Days happening in Albany, there are LOTS of garage sales, and lots of garage salers.  So, Amy and I decided to try our luck at having a sale of our own.  First, we had to talk Eric into letting us use his precious garage.  

We didn't expect to make millions.  We agreed that we wouldn't take any time off work for it, we'd just be open when we could be there.  We set things up Tuesday and Wednesday night, and opened the doors Thursday afternoon.

Also, I forgot to mention that my Grandpa (a professional garage saler) brought a bunch of man junk and set up on one table, and the lawn.  He made more money on the first day, than the rest of us made the entire weekend.  

So, our significant others complained, about how much work a garage sale is, and how it's not worth it.  

They quit complaining when they saw how much we/they made.  Some of us made more than others.  Some of us spent more than others.  They told us to take whatever we had left on Sunday and head straight to Good  Will.  We put everything in boxes, and we'll try again in May at my house ;)

We tried to explain to them, that we have fun doing garage sales.  We get to hang out together for a couple days.  We get to laugh, read magazines, and watch our junk disappear, and make a few bucks.  They don't understand.   They never will.
