Since its debut in 1979, For Better or For Worse has touched comic strip readers as few cartoons ever do. Cartoonist Lynn Johnston’s eye for detail and her uncanny sense of what real parents and children struggle with daily are a big part of her success. The world has watched the Patterson family grow up in real time, and to many readers, the Pattersons feel like family!
Parents and children alike will relate to the obstacles that the Patterson family faces. Curfews, parent date nights, babysitting, pets and distractions are all hurdles that the Pattersons must overcome in order to enjoy each other as a family. They face the same obstacles that real life families do, which is what makes them so loveable.

I am glad to see Elly has cooking gear in her hands to sell. It’s not like she needs that stuff anyway.

Keep the pants on. She could get arrested for selling John’s “junk.”

Ugh!!!
I don’t think I’d want to buy clothing (especially pants) that someone just took off.
Who knows what sexual fantasies John may have been having and how his “privates” reacted???

I thought the main purpose ofr a yard sale was to sell until everything was gone. When everything has been sold, or when people have stopped coming by,. you close up shop.

My thoughts exactly. Close early and have a brewsky to celebrate.

Does anybody realize how much it will cost Ellie and hubby to replace all the “junk” they just gave away but use?

Why is she the one who has to give up more stuff she may actually need? It’s not like she’s making one cent from the sale. They’re lucky they’ve sold so much so yeah, close up shop early.

My mom is an avid cookie jar collector – one year while on our annual summer trip we stopped at a garage sale. She asked the woman if she had any cookie jars for sale. The woman told mom to wait a moment and ran into the house. Mom bought the cookie jar and we continued on our trip enjoying the “thrown in” homemade cookies. :-) It probably helped that I am one of six siblings so she knew the cookies would not be wasted.
