Sucky garage sale was sucky.

Okay, so I decided to try and sell some stuff at the garage sale that my family held yesterday. This one was part of a city wide garage sale, but despite that, we barely got any customers. I was trying to sell fourteen PS1 titles, five bucks for single disk games, and ten for multi-disk games. They were in fairly good condition and most of them still had the original casing and not a single fucking one of them sold! I could have really used the ninety bucks I would have gotten from selling them.
Hell, when you consider all the labor it takes over several days to unpack all the crap out of storage, price it, rebox it, load it into a pick-up, drive it twelve plus miles to my aunt's house, then unload it, unpack it, set it out, and then repeat the process again for another one or two pick-up loads, you kinda expect to make a decent amount of money. Even my mother and aunt were remarking about how horrible this garage sale was compared to their last one, they figured that it was because they didn't put any signs out this time.
Well.. maybe the one that they're planning for my grandmother's in a few weeks will turn out better, although I'm not getting my hopes up, considering that she lives in the boonies.
