This weekend we had a yard sale at my mom's house to raise some money for our adoption. We made about $350 dollars. I would have liked to have made more, but the week before I kept having nightmares that we would only raise $30 so I guess we did pretty good. We only had my clothes, but they sold pretty good. One lady actually thanked me for once being her size.
I thought my books would sell better than they did. I only asked $5 and I thought that was a deal since they are about $12 new. Josh couldn't believe I sold some books, but I would rather be a mother than have a large book collection. Besides, I kept my absolute favorites (which is still a TON of books).
My family donated quite a few things to the yard sale. Thank you so much! My mom even sold her trampoline and donated the money to us.

His torment on Friday was to have a sign taped to him. He wasn't sure what to think about it. John said he wouldn't really sell him, not even for $200, but I would have! Well, maybe not, but only if the offer had been a lot of money.

The cat for sale was very funny. I had to laugh just seeing your cats face.hahaahaa
Sounds like your garage sale was a success! I need to get motivated and earn some extra money for our adoption (it if will ever happen)
$350 sounds pretty good for a garage sale. I've heard tha amazon is a ood place to resell books.
