Everything must go!
Ohanahaus is a new chapter; almost everything about it will be new. The place, the house itself, appliances, furniture... everything. Time to get rid of a bunch of stuff but how? Yard sale!
We've never had a yard sale, or any kind of sale for that matter, much less at our home. Wait, this isn't our home anymore right. Signs are not really our thing, and with the boy, advertising where you'll be sleeping didn't seem well advised. What to do, where will the buyers come from? Will anyone actually be interested? Craig's List!We took a bunch of pictures of the items we wanted to sell, posted an ad omitting our address but leaving a phone number to call us for directions (a way of pre-screening people). Well it worked; we sold all the premium items, mostly to pre-qualified buyers on Saturday. Then Saturday night, knowing we'd moved into Edward safely away from the loonies, we posted the address for the Sunday blow out. Sunday from 9A to 1P the ad stated, call for information. At about 7A the calls started - we sold everything and then some =)
Met some cool people, and avoided transporting, storing, and paying to haul away a house full of stuff we no longer needed - with cash to boot! Time to call 1800gotjunk.
