My Frugal Year » garage sale http://www.myfrugalyear.com Saving Money One Day at a Time Wed, 20 Jul 2011 22:55:06 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 Day Seventeen http://www.myfrugalyear.com/2009/01/17/day-seventeen/ http://www.myfrugalyear.com/2009/01/17/day-seventeen/#comments Sat, 17 Jan 2009 15:39:28 +0000 becca http://myfrugalyear.com/?p=97 I love lazy Saturdays, don’t you? It didn’t start out lazy. There was an early board meeting for a non profit group I’m involved with, but the rest of the day was just hanging out with the family. I like days like that. We didn’t go out or do anything really. We were just all at home doing our thing. Reading, playing on the computer, watching a movie. It was nice.

No spending today, which is good since I made the Costco run the other day. Since today was a lazy day that means tomorrow needs to be a productive day. I plan to do some de-cluttering in the basement. It’s my plan to be nice and ready for a good weather weekend to come along and finally do this garage sale I’ve been meaning to do. Garage sales are a great way to get rid of stuff that’s just clogging up your home and to make some nice extra cash. Nice way to beef up the savings account! The only problem is that it’s January in Colorado. This means any given weekend there could be a blizzard or 70 degree weather. Makes it tough to plan. The best I can do is get everything organized with price labels and when the weather cooperates, throw a Craigslist ad up and a few signs and get it done.

So, we’ll see how much I actually get done tomorrow!
