Our blog, <b>For Sale: One Thousand Things</b> will follow our journey to sell One Thousand Things. <br>
We are using this challenge to save money for a trip to the USA, and as an incentive to make and create items to sell.
We will use Ebay, Etsy, face to face, Trading Posts, Markets and possibly a garage sale to help us reach our goal.
So join Teak, Sage, Pho and Pappy on their path to their dream vacation.Project 1000http://www.blogger.com/profile/10744295478277002947noreply@blogger.comBlogger37125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8742766568100761012.post-46881618285637196522011-06-11T18:32:00.003+10:002011-06-11T18:46:22.966+10:00Sold 289 to 297<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirmAvcGuVlwgqL1w-gy1lQJ5zXla9GL5gruccqDLPBrYRwHoj_Eo01FzkQY4Z6-hciEbrY8TT3K4l9KDtB6wfRKmd_Yc3w-Lv-4DDj4HDR-HZ7YDji-Kt6Nq2lK6RRZVjGMIQgRHR8e9wl/s1600/waltdisne-1307778594-267.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 148px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirmAvcGuVlwgqL1w-gy1lQJ5zXla9GL5gruccqDLPBrYRwHoj_Eo01FzkQY4Z6-hciEbrY8TT3K4l9KDtB6wfRKmd_Yc3w-Lv-4DDj4HDR-HZ7YDji-Kt6Nq2lK6RRZVjGMIQgRHR8e9wl/s200/waltdisne-1307778594-267.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5616878258200524898" /></a><div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande'; font-size: small; ">We took three DVD's to the Trade in store we had used before - this time they only offered $1 per movie - they were all unopened, so we don't think we will be trying that approach again</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande'; font-size: small; ">Sage sold a guitar and amp earlier this year through All Classifieds - the $ went towards her 2011 overseas adventure.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Have started a few eBay listings again, with good results for a Lion King DVD.
