Garage sale


This week, on a whim, I decided that we should have a garage sale. I needed to get the garage cleaned out so that I could park my car in it again, but I don't think I quite realized the work involved in having a garage sale. I spent all week organizing, pricing, and advertising. It was worth the hard work in the end, because we ended up making almost $300!

The kids really wanted to get involved, so a good friend of mine came up with the great idea to have the kids sell cupcakes and lemonade. So they set up a stand, and charged 25 cents for a cupcake and 10 cents for lemonade. They ended up making $8 to split!
