FRUGAL FRIDAY
TODAY FOR FRUGAL FRIDAY, I AM GOING TO GIVE SOME IDEAS FOR GARAGE SALES. OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IS HAVING A HUGE GARAGE SALE SATURDAY. HANNAH AND I HAVE BEEN COMING UP WITH IDEAS TO MAKE IT SUCCESSFUL. FIRST OFF OUR NEIGHBORHOOD HAS ABOUT 150 HOUSES, AND WE LIVE ABOUT HALF WAY UP THE NEIGHBORHOOD, SO WE THOUGHT IF WE SOLD COLD BOTTLE WATERS AND COLD COKES THAT WE COULD MAKE A LOT. WE ONLY BOUGHT SPRING WATER AND COCA-COLAS, SO IF THEY DON'T SALE WE WOULD STILL DRINK THEM. WE BOUGHT TWO CASES OF 24 PACK WATERS FOR $3.75, AND PLAN TO SELL THEM FOR $1 EACH. IF WE SOLD ALL 48 THAT WOULD BE A PROFIT OF $40.75. WE BOUGHT ONE 24 PACK OF COKES AT WAL-MART FOR $5.98 AND I AM GOING TOMORROW TO GET 48 MORE AT CVS FOR $11 PLUS I WILL GET $3 BACK IN ECBS. IF I SALE ALL 72 AT .75 THAT WILL BE A PROFIT OF $37. WE ALSO HAVE A BLOW UP JUMPING THING AND HANNAH THOUGHT OF THE IDEA OF LETTING KIDS JUMP ON IT FOR $1. SHE THOUGHT THAT WOULD DRAW ATTENTION AND PLUS SHE WOULD MEET NEW FRIENDS. I HAVE A TON OF MAKE-UP AND STOCK PILE FROM MY CVS TRIPS. I ALSO HAVE A TON OF CLOTHES AND ITEMS AROUND THE HOUSE. SO I AM HOPING TO MAKE AT LEAST $150.00. WHAT EVER I MAKE IS GOING INTO SAVINGS. FOR MORE FRUGAL FRIDAY TIPS VISIT CRYSTAL.
