I woke up at 7:30 am and started setting out my kids yard sale / lemonade & cookie stand. The frame of the tent was left up from Friday so all I had to do was put the cover over it and raise it up. That saved me a lot of time.
It took me just about exactly an hour to get everything all set up. My son and daughter slept until it was set up and ready. It has been out since 8:30 am.. two hours now. They have had two customers and sold a barbie house with a bunch of barbie furniture for $3. It was pretty large so I am glad to have sold it and not have to bring it back in to pack away.
My mans son is supposed to come at some point today and set up a little table out in the yard to sell his things as well. They live out in a boonies so my yard is a better spot.
It is cooler this morning which made setting the stuff all out a lot easier then it was on Friday. It looks like it will be a beautiful day out.

I like to keep the prices really low so things sell and get out of my house. One dress was really nice and only worn once my daughter asked how much it should be I said $1. They tag fell off and she sold it for 25 cents. That lady got a really good deal!
The total of the money they got for their sale on Friday and today was $37.

@crazyhorseladycx This is actually all the stuff I usually donate. I saved it up for them to have a sale this summer. I cannot stand the clutter any more it was over taking my room and my daughters room.

It is 6:30 pm. We were just going to pack up when another car came. There was a few kids and the grandmother let them each pick out one thing and so my kids got $2.

The total they earned for the two days was $37. A big barbie house with furniture sold for $3. They got an awesome deal the people who bought it and I got a large thing out of my house that was taking up storage space so I am happy.
