Hello friends!<\/p>\n

Did you know that today is my birthday? I\u2019m 8!<\/p>\n

We headed out again on Saturday for our last day of \u201cPre-Season\u201d before the summer sale craziness kicks off in May! The forecast was for thunderstorms, but Patrick doesn\u2019t mind a little rain (he\u2019s crazy!). However, we ended up having fantastic weather and I even got an extra walk in!<\/p>\n

Our first sale sounded good on paper and great when we arrived, but they couldn\u2019t find the box of games they said they had. They did bring this out though:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Paid $2 and it\u2019s always a good game to pick up.<\/p>\n

Then we took a LONG drive out to our 2nd sale where they said they had video games. We missed them, but picked this stuff up:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Paid $20 for both and value it at $70. If this kept up, we would have had a fantastic day! Alas\u2026<\/p>\n

We then went to around 10 more sales where there were hardly any items to look at or just a ton of junk. Get a dumpster people!<\/p>\n

Towards the end of our day though, things turned around (They always do if you have hope like I do!).<\/p>\n

At one of our last sales we found these:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We paid $8 and value it all at $80. Nice score!<\/p>\n

We then headed to our last sale of the day which was on our way home. They had listed toys and bikes, so it had potential. We weren\u2019t wrong!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nPicked everything up for $35 and value it all at $125 for our best sale of the day!<\/p>\n

No back-flips this week, but we did have a great morning driving around town. Next weekend there should be a TON of sales, so we\u2019ll be crazy busy. Good luck!<\/p>\n

Total spent: $65<\/p>\n

Total value: $284<\/p>\n

Total profit after fees: $162<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
