First flea market sale this year!
Well, I'm kinda ashamed to post now after seeing how well Treasurehouse did with her garage sale this weekend, but I am really happy with how I did!
Just an FYI, I sent my stockpile stuff with my dad several times last summer and the best I ever did was $350. This was my first trip this year and I made just over $500 (cleared $480 after booth fee and having to buy breakfast and lunch for me and my daughter and giving my daughter a little $$ for helping out)! I am soooo excited to go again now! We are planning to go back Memorial Day weekend. We only go on Sundays too, which is a slow day for the flea market. It was raining all day, so I figured it wouldn't go very well. I went with 15 boxes full of stuff and came home with only 3 boxes full. So now I gotta go shopping like crazy before the next time! And a little of everything sold except the EOB robes from CVS (hopefully they will go toward the end of summer) and the KY (I think people might be a little iffy about buying this at a flea market  ). I didn't try any food stuff, but everything from shampoo, bodywash, deodorant, toothpaste, batteries (these were gone within minutes of setting them out), gift sets, air fresheners, and cleaners sold! This was my first time trying the cleaners, so I was really happy that those sold so well!

Congrats!
Do you plan to do this about once a month? If so, that's some nice income!

That's awesome! I wish I had enough stockpile to pack things up for a flea market.

That is great. When I was in nashville and they had their flea market I noticed that someone there was selling stockpile things like razor, toothpaste and shampoo.

Sounds good to me. I think you did a wonderful job. I am thinking about a stockpile sale as well. Better get going on the stockpiling.

Great job!
Thanks for posting this because I was wondering if anyone ever did the flea market instead of having a sale at home. My neighborhood wouldn't be the best place for one, but we do have a pretty good flea market. If I ever get a big enough stockpile I may just try this!
