Garage Sale

Since Joel and I are living with my Mom we decided that it would be best to sell all of our extra items we had around the house. I started doing the coupon thing in January because Joel and I moved out on our own and had to pinch pennies. Now, that Joel is going back to school we are continuing in that pattern. I had so much extra coupon stuff that it was driving me crazy, and my Mom crazy. We just don't have that much space in our bedroom and half of Abbey's room. Our stuff started to pile in the garage where our furniture currently is and that was turning out bad.
In conclusion, we decided to have a Garage sale last Saturday, while my Mom was in Canada to cut down on added stress. We got off to a late start so I figured that would ruin our turn-out considering it was supposed to be 106 degrees that day, but OHHH NO!!! We were so busy. We sold a little more than half our stash. Our grand total for the day was.... Are you ready for this????
$704!!! Yes you are reading that right.
So to those of you who think I am a little crazy with the coupons... You are right, but with that kind of profit I am fine being crazy. So make-fun of me all you want! I am still ahead!

Thanks for your comment on my blog. It's fun when people I don't know comment on my blog. We have the same problem with stuff. Somehow it just accumulates! We need to have some major garage sale. (we live in the sticks, so that makes it kind of hard). Good profit!
