We had a yard sale this last weekend. It was a combined sale with our friends Jesse & Alisha. It was a lot of work, but we were able to clear out our basement of unneeded items and we also made some pocket cash. The economy made it surprisingly tough because people were being really careful about their purchases, even about just $2.00 items. Each person really thought it through first, which was bad for us, and everyone was talking us down in price, which we obliged, but even then they sometimes wouldn't buy it. People were refusing items over the fact that we wouldn't bring down the price another $.25 to $.50, even after knocking $5.00 to $10.00 or more off the price. It was very different from our yard sale last year where people didn't put a lot of thought into the purchase and the overall attitude was, well this stuff is so cheap who cares. I thought our sales would be better this year because of the fact that people are really needing to be frugal during these times and even though we had three times the amount of people show up and more stuff we made the same amount as last year. We decided we'd hold off on anymore yard sales until the economy gets better. We're hoping that will be by next year so we can continue on with our annual yard sale.
