HAVING A YARD SALE....please tell me to just pack that crap up and take it to the Goodwill or Salvation Army!. Lawd have mercy...I am so tired. I basically ended up giving the stuff away for free anyway. I mean I priced items very low...for example $5 for an almost new rice cooker....seeing that I don't eat rice any more. This little old lady saw it...talked me down to $3 and then wanted to take a handfull of other items in with the deal. I just let her have the stuff...because I had no plans to take it back inside. I have a big sign up out there now that says FREE STUFF. People are now coming out of the wood work, including family...LOL!...grabbing up the little treasures. Anything remaining will go to the Goodwill! I took a shower...now I just need to lay down for a few. Feels like I have been lifting concrete bricks all day. Definitely a good work out. Take care all.

i have done yard sales and yesssss they are alot of work.
aint it amazing how people want you to give "your" stuff away. If that little old lady would have gone to walmart and found the same rice cooker on clearance for $5 she would have been happy and bought it.....i hope you were able to make something out of it!!!
Get some rest

ETA: Have a pleasant Memorial Day...Just_Me!
I'm thinking of down sizing and was going to have a garage sale I think it will be easier to go to my niece and to goodwill. I have way to much to do trying to clean to houses for the ground floor to the attic. Thanks, for remembering me how much work it can be have done it in the past and have done good. I'm to tried to be bargaining with people.

For real...it's not worth the aggravation Kathleen. If you can get family to come unload some items off of you...it would be for the best. Trying to haggle with folks is exhausting in itself. No one is going to see the same value you see in something. I would rather let a family member or needy person have it for free than to get $1 for an item from someone who is probably hoarding junk anyway and don't need it. As mentioned earlier, its not like they are profitable. The best thing I received from my yard sale was an opportunity to socialize with the neighbors..since it was a community yard sale. Have pleasant Memorial Day.

See now Double_Ayy....I was not even suspicious of that little old lady until just now. She was NOT willing to part with that $5 for that rice cooker. Now I am putting two and two together
. Were you coaching her through that ear piece I mistook for a hearing aid?
Double_Ayy to Old Lady through ear piece: "You can not, I repeat can not give her $5 for that rice cooker. Number One you don't know if it works, Number two...your azz don't need to be eating rice anyway and Number three...you already promised me that you were going to lemme hold $5.
Little old lady to me: I only have $3 for the rice cooker and all of this stuff you see here. *as she takes out a bank roll of cash*
MD to old lady: I say politely, "OK I will take the $3" *(while thinking to myself)...now get out of here before I sic the neighbor's dog on your cheap azz!
ETA: Have a pleasant Memorial Day Aaron!
