Mrs. Hillman: Since the economy forced us to move into your tiny house, our family has become much closer... ...And having a yard sale together will bring us closer still! Irving: Selling our belongings on the yard will bring us closer? Cathy: I just bought those jeans!! Mrs. Hillman: It will bring us closer to snapping! Irving: Dad?? Mr. Hillman: Count me in! The tension's been killing me!
While I’ve helped my mother on occasion with some of her yard sales, I’ve never actually had one myself because I basically can’t stand them. All the time spent gathering everything together, pricing it, money spent advertising the sale, setting the whole thing up, the day (or weekend) spent having it, taking it all back down again when it’s over with, and then having to decide what to do with everything left over that didn’t sell: either store it somewhere for another sale again sometime in the future or donate it and just be done with it already? Such a hassle! And, as lightenup said, you put 50¢ on something and they want you to take 10¢ for it instead. So tacky! Better to just donate what you don’t want to charity. That way, they can sell it in order to raise funds for their cause and you don’t have to worry about having to deal with it being in your way anymore. A real win-win in my book! :-)
P.S.: Does anyone know why all the Cathy comics have suddenly switched from color to black and white ….. even the ones that I know for a FACT were in color just last week? Now I have to look at the same comic in two different places: Arcamax (to see it in color) and here for all the comments. Talk about something that’s a real hassle! :-/
