August Money

I have mixed emotions about this month's money. I took two weeks off from selling. I had my store on vacation mode, still sold a few things while on vacation mode, and have sold consistently the past 10 days. So technically my store was only "open" for 18 days this month, and the numbers really reflect that.  So part of me is happy that I did well during that time, and the other part is like whoa those numbers are low!

But I started off September with a $100 sale of the Bodum coffee maker!

Some of this month's sales:

Goodell Bakelite Flatware 

Best offer $100 F/S

I had it listed for $165 but since I paid $2 for the set at a yard sale and because it was the beginning of the month and things were summer slow, I took the best offer.

Croft and Barrow Purse with a really cool built in "wallet" in the front!

Paid $6 Sold $24.99

Amish Print Pyrex Dishes paid $6 sold $34.99

September here we come!!!
