FIRST RUMMAGE SALE OF 2011

On Saturday, January 22, 2011 we had our first rummage sale of  the new year, our tenth since we started selling our belongings so we can go Fulltiming  later on this year. We rented a table at the Rapid Valley Methodist Church, this was our third time going out there. It was from 8:00 to 1:00 and we joined 5 other tables, it is held right in the church.


We set up the night before it  only took about an hour. I didn't take alot of my stuff, as you can see by the picture it was alot of tools, hunting and fishing stuff, alot of Darrell's "stuff". We got there Saturday morning about 7:30  and  we already had shoppers. We were so busy! We were able to sell alot of "stuff". The men just loved our table! They loved digging through the tools.


Darrell took quite a few jackets, a few hunting vests and we sold all of those, all that was left was the spring jackets, which we will take to the next one, hopefully in February, if we can get a nice day  for it. We took a pickup load plus stuff in the back seat and came home with a quarter of a pickup load.


The folks at the Church are very nice, and they had the most delicious cinnamon and caramel rolls and our customers were great. We recognized some from the other sales that we've had there. We made $336.25, the best we have done out there and we were very pleased!
