WTG guy's. Always so heartwarming to see how so many SC people come to the aid of others, whether it be for a great cause like this one, or just because someone needs a hand. Such a wonderful community, and I for one am very proud to be a part of it

Yup. She said to come at 9 AM. So I was early. But, the neighbours were really, really early. So, I was kinda late.:embarassed:

Everyone else: I have known Koolaid for almost one year. And this is not hyperbole . . . Koolaid is truly THE MOST DEVOTED PARENT I have ever known. (And this coming from a Mom who has raised her two children on her own.) If you can contribute to her Autism Speaks Walk, either through a direct donation or to her yard sale, please do so.

OK crying now!!! Thank you for the awesome words!!! And thanks to you, Shwa Girl, and SavenRaven for your guys donations!!!! I will try to take it easy but I still have one more garage sale to go.....might purge more today!

Basically when we started doing the Autism walks I was looking for a way to raise money and then it hit me to get rid of my excess crap...lol! I mean treasures...lol! Then I read on here someone else who sold their extra stockpile for another charity and I thought what a great idea!! So I use my spare for storage and when ever I found anything for free I would put it in boxes in there. I don't sell any food or medicine but everything else is fair game.

Most items were about 25 to 50 cents. I usually put it at 75% of what the regular price is.

Hope that helps!

I wondered why I hadn`t seen any of your fabulous shops in the last little while - You must have been getting ready for the sale! Congratulations on the success of your day and thank you for doing such terrific community work! Energy must be your middle name! Thanks also to all the SCers for their help!
