I Hosted a party/garage sale in a bachelor flat with nowhere to sit except my bed and a couch my friends had already bought, but thankfully had not taken delivery of. I displayed everything I wanted to sell in a large wall unit. The cabinet was conveniently sectioned off in to small square pigeon holes that could fit the following items:
- 7 Bags of Opened, but rarely used baking flour
- Sticks of roll on deodorant; bug spray; sunscreen – all used
- Weights and a soccer ball
- Miscellaneous books with titles such as “Some of my best friends are white” and “University of Gravel Roads”
- A blonde wig
- Cling Wrap, 2 new rolls and 1 used (Subsequently rescinded)
- Cuban Cigars in a Protein Powder Humidor
- 3 pairs of Sz 11 shoes and a matching barbeque tray with firelighters to burn the shoes.
- Sushi set including opened pack of seaweed and soy sauce
- Box o Knots; tailors tape and a bicycle tube
- Sony RX100 compact camera and sliding keyboard text phone
- Cross Country Skis
- Snowboard/Minivan helmet
- Spices
- Expired dry goods
The Outcome
- I no longer have 7 bags of flour!
- No one took me up on my award winning blonde wig – It may still be for sale at a Value Village near you!
- Value Village is owned by Walmart!
- Thrift stores are good places to buy lightweight bags and handbags
- Thrift stores are good places to buy Travel Pillows
- Do not buy a travel pillow from a thrift store the day before you leave, because it is unlikely you will have time to wash it
- Using a second hand travel pillow with no hair is recommended
- Cutting your hair off after using a second hand travel pillow is also recommended
Brilliant! I’m adopting your idea and going to plan a Party/garage sale when I leave France 🙂
Hope some one took the creepy eye!
i can’t believe someone actually bought your flour.
What can I say Scott. I have some very special friends. Don’t loose hope. There should be some great photos and entertaining experiences coming soon.
No-one bought the Creepy Eye Love. Maybe Value Village will have better luck. If they can sell used pillows they can sell anything!
