Tomorrow is THE day. The Divine Consign sale begins! I am so excited because sweet Caroline needs dresses! I volunteered there today, getting everything on the racks, and it was great! I saw so many possibilities and I planned my method of attack on which racks to visit first. So, at 4:00 tomorrow, think of me as I enter the doors of the sale and load up on some smocks. I'll have my camera in hand, too. I wonder who else I'll find shopping....
Oh, and I forgot to add last night when I wrote this post:
As I was working, I met this lady named Patty. She brought it about 3-4 containers of clothes to sell, all new with tags. She was consigning and volunteering, so she and I ended up stuffing goody bags together for a good hour. I asked her if she buys things just to sell and she baffled me with her story! Apparently she goes to ALL the after Christmas sales, Back to School sales, basically any store that has a huge, blowout sale (online or in person) and buys up things (only nice brands) at major discounted prices. She has a storage container for all of her purchases. She sells on Ebay and at all the local consignment sales. She said last weekend she MADE $900.00 in profit at a local consigment sale. This "job" enables her to be a stay-at-home mom. I thought it was a good idea, if you have tons of time on your hand. I'll admit I'll pick up something here and there to resell on Ebay, but I never thought about making it a job. Hmmmmm.

Have fun! And happy hunting. I'm going to try and go on Thursday!
I am so jealous! Oh how I wish the burg would do a great sale like that! Have fun!!
wish i could say i'd be there. but sadly, you won't see my face :(
Have fun at your sale today Donna. Can't wait to see what you get.
Donna, if you ever need ebay help...I would love to give you some of my secrets! That is my job. If you go to ebay and click on sellers...I am "hookedonpink". I usually list about 20 items a weeks. This week is a little slow. But I will go to garage sales and get nice items for example...I went to a prestigious neighborhood sale last month. Got tons of Ralph Lauren clothes for $1 a piece. One outfit I sold on ebay for $17.50!
Donna- I think Roy is rubbing off on you:)
Can't wait to see the goods!
That sounds like a job Kendra would like, maybe you should give her the tip. I use to have friends that did that at the Jcrew in the Burg and then sell on Ebay!
Have fun on your trip...You are going to like! I must say my brother is pretty good at this stuff.
