    Re: Yard Sale - someone once advised my mom to not spend time tagging the items. Her reasoning was, 'You know what you will take for it and you'll know when the offer isn't good anyway - so don't waste the time.'

    Might be an idea if the various sellers get to donate a percentage and keep some, or donate all of it.

    Thank you so much guys!!

    Upon further consideration (considering that my area is in the middle of a very rough drought - dry winters), I'm not comfortable doing a car wash unless the other folks are really adamant about doing it. The eco-side of me feels a little hypocritical

    The pennies idea sounds like another idea I'd heard of. I think the idea was to bid with $1's versus tickets since people are more inclined to give small cash and change. I'll try to see how we can work that; maybe do a raffle or auction using $1's instead of tickets.

    I was also trying to see if we couldn't get a table at a farmer's market Glad to hear my ideas aren't too crazy. I will be introducing the yard sale idea and everything to my team leader in an e-mail. She hasn't responded yet, so I'll wait for her to respond before I barrage her with ideas. You guys are the BEST!
