Greeting Fellow Poppers!
Today is my usual tag popping day. I went to two different sales. One was a church sale where the parishiners donated the items and the money went to a church outside of the country. There were lots of items for sale; nothing that caught my eye.
The second sale was an estate sale. The home of a recently deceased doctor who raised his family in this house. There was also much to choose from; a bit higher end than the church and this money was part of the family's estate. I found nothing there, either. My daughter, however found a great Audrey Hepburn type hat - $ 4.21.
Since one of my weekend days is usually focused on some aspect of making money, I did a couple of things that are related to that. One, I filled out the form to participate in my child's school fund raising yard sale that will be held in 3 weeks, $25.00 per slot and the money goes to the drama club. The second thing I did related to making money was to begin a list of what items I will be selling and pricing those pieces. Since the sale is in the fall, I usually only bring fall/winter items. This year will be no different, except we will be bringing holiday related items as well. We are going to try and raise money for a New York trip in the late fall. Perhaps take the train and see a broadway show.
I will also take some of the money and put it into a savings account. Christmas is coming and I like being prepared. We also have a birthday to celebrate just before Christmas, so it is an extra busy and fun time for us. I will blog about the yard sale, perhaps during and most definitely one or two times before to give updates on the prepping.
Enjoy your day and as always... Happy Tagging!!!
