GM's thread about nothing (25 Viewers)

Friendly advice - If your two year old is melting down in Target, telling your wife that she made him the spoiled child he is will not go over well.

 
new casino opening near Chicago on Monday night. pretty excited. The rest of them around here are way too far away.

 
Yard/garage/yard (no rain/rain/no rain) sale this morning. I've never actually done one of these so I didn't know what to expect. The morning started out with my opening the rear door to our Forerunner and having a trailer hitch fall smack dab on top of my foot. Pretty sure something is broken in there, based on the bruising and my inability to walk straight. So Mr. YSR, being the chivalrous southern gentleman he is, sends me inside to get some ice on it, because it's only 6:45 and our sign says this thing starts at 8:00. So, you know, he has plenty of time to get things set up. Except he doesn't. People started arriving at 6:53. We made the mistake of putting 8-12 on the sign, so he's still out there haggling. I'm inside, partly because he's better at the haggling, but mostly because I just kind of hate dealing with people.

Where is it? We're coming up in mid-September, and I told Mr. krista he should plan to go to the casinos one night with his poker buddies. A closer one would be excellent.

In Desplaines, not far from O'Hare.http://playrivers.com/I'm actually not sure if they have poker room yet or not. Would suck if they don't. EDIT: Looks like they don't have one. :thumbdown:

You'll have something that you don't care about marked at a dollar, something that you would almost rather use for target practice or throw it in a bonfire just to watch it melt, and somebody is going to offer you eighty five cents for it.

:goodposting: I had a box of assorted #### that I marked $0.50 per item. People were trying to haggle me down to a quarter. It's ridiculous.

Yep. I got my experience from a garage sale I had around the age 12-13. Now I just give everything to charity and take the tax write off. People are freaking nuts.
 
Got up at 5 AM to drive three hours to work a garage sale in Oklahoma. Please pray for the people around me.
Wait...what?

No, see.. this is where you explain why you're working a garage sale three hours away in Oklahoma.
Sick aunt moving out of her house and into assisted living. She had basically been a buyer of stuff for 30 years and she can't take anything with her.
