Madness!!!
 

So I've bought a new house. ........

so we got tons of shit to get rid of my wife thinks.. "Garage Sale , and let the kids run it"

The little bastards are cleaning up!!!!

Selling old toys old crap furniture and shit.

The little bastards posted signs everywhere...I just checked on them , they are $500 up on the day LOL

Re: Madness!!!
 

I had ONE garage sale. Never again. Every time I move or get rid of things now it all goes to charity. My sanity isn't worth it.

After the kids sell everything, explain to them since you bought it in the first place, all proceeds are yours ;)

Re: Madness!!!
 

That's excellent news, make sure your golf clubs are in your room with you though ;) you will need them ..

Re: Madness!!!
 

I told them they could have the entire proceeds.

It was to encourage them to market , haggle etc etc etc....

My eldest daughter ( she is 12) (ahahahahaha sorry I'm pissing myself) is taking everyone's email address on the grounds that in a couple of weeks we will have a moving sale , and she will email them to let them know when it is.

She has 9 so far!!!!


ahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahaahahah

Great minds think alike ;)

Re: Madness!!!
 

Hmmm...I wonder if that counts as double opt in :)

Re: Madness!!!
 

Oh that e-mail story is CLASSIC!!!!

Re: Madness!!!
 

Gets better....

I told her to mark down what they would be interested in.

"toys"
"furniture"

etc etc...

She already is!!! And how much they spent previously.

Brings a tear to my eye..

My son is acting as security.

He is 11...

It looks like he is doing an Anthony impression ahahahahahahahahahah

Re: Madness!!!
 

That's bringing a tear to my eye
I can only hope for something so wonderful in the future

Re: Madness!!!
 

Pre-existing relationship to the customer.

Re: Madness!!!
 

No Shit! Cool, don't let those little bastards sell my clubs!!! :)

Re: Madness!!!
 

They'll be running circles around you soon, Nick! :okthumb:

Twenty years from now ...

"Yes, father, thought he was all that with his piddling little empire."

"Now, now. He did the best he could with the limited technology of his time."

"True true. And afterall, a measy million probably bought a lot of things back then before inflation."

:wnw:


You've just nailed it :okthumb:

Re: Madness!!!
 

I always hated garage sales.... fucking people that go to them drive me nuts.... I'm asking 25 cents for something I paid like 20 bucks for.... and the cheap bastards want to talk me down to a dime... its a bloody quarter for christs sake...

I say burn the old stuff or donate it

Re: Madness!!!
 

So.. what was their final haul?

Re: Madness!!!
 

You are absolutely right. The kids told me the same thing.

My son came in and said "Dad , can I use bad words?" ahahahahahahaha

No clubs were sold , I said Anthony says "if you sell them he'll hurt you real bad"

They expressed interest in you visiting Anthony...I think the interest was motivated by the thought of gifts though. Pretty much the same as me :) LOL

Oh and just shy of $1000.

$300 for each of the big kids.
$100 for the 14 mth old (as he lured in people in order to coo at him)

My eldest daughter is gonna buy the new season gucci's she has seen. ( She is on there mail list , I know , its insane a 12 yr old buying guccis...but she also has 2 LV purses now...fucking ridiculous.. lol)
My eldest son has a list of xbox games
Youngest daughter..."hmmm I dunno.."
