Generally speaking, there is never enough traffic on the mountain to have an unadvertised yard sale. So you run the risk of spending the money and no one showing up or no one handing over any cash for your stuff. However, once a year there is a day that everyone gets all of their stuff out for a "neighborhood" yard sale. The best part is that you don't have to advertise, the church down the street does that and brings all the folks who are more than willing to go through whatever you cared to put out for them..... and that day was today.
Sissy had been working on putting things out for several days to make sure that everything was set up ahead of time. Unfortunately, she only made $1.50 but she didn't complain.
Other than that the day was a success. We went shopping at the other sales and picked up some great stuff. Little Man and Curly both now have "new" bikes. Little Man also purchased for himself a giant chalk board. Munchkin even got a "new" swing. He has been needing something to entertain him.
Also, we had made arrangements for a very nice couple to come and get a bunny. We stood around chatting with them for quite some time. Then they were off and bunny went on an hour ride home to his new house. Hope that all goes well. :)
