Day 311 - Garage Sale

Today I hung out across the street helping my neighbors with their garage sale. Seemed like the right thing to do since I threw some things into the sale.  They did quite well which surprised us since it was a cloudy, cold Friday. I made very little money today BUT there is a benefit to viewing the merchandise BEFORE the sale.  I got the following two items for next to nothing.

Old medicine cabinet door with mirror
Great old wood and canvas lawn chair
My neighbor didn't even want me to pay her for the medicine cabinet door and finally agreed to $1.00.  I paid her $2.00 but probably should have paid more.  I have something in mind for this door and hopefully I will be able to have a picture for a future post.  The lawn chair was from Donna's daughter and it only cost me $5.00.  It is unbelievably comfortable.  I want to stain it to match my arbor out front and then sew a new canvas seat that I can remove to wash.  Also hope to post that later.

Hope I make more money tomorrow  because I only cleared about $8.00 today.  At least that covered my purchases.
