Missed Opportunities

            I have been thinking about blogging since my last post, yet I haven't done it. My week in review is a month past due and situations that have occurred between now and then that were once worth blogging about are no more. Moreover, I have been staring at my "to list" pile and while I do list daily, it continues to grow. I just can't catch up. On the plus side I am almost up to 300 listings from the 250 I've been stuck at for a while. But I still have another 50+ to go. Now if I could just stop buying until all my listings are done I'd be in great shape.....right, like that will happen. Am I the only one who cannot pass up an opportunity to make money?? 
             I have had consistent sales. One of the favorites is a National Geographic snuff jar I bought at a yard sale for a dollar and sold for $20 plus shipping. 


I also sold a pair of Lucky Jeans for a dollar at a different yard sale and sold them for 
                                                     $30 plus shipping.



I also sold a Teddy Bear that I acquired  while in Reno at The Goodwill for 25 cents and sold for
$13.00 plus shipping. 


    I came across what I thought was a mirage at my local Salvation Army, a brand new pair of Calvin Klein Jeans, with Macy's tags. I listed them right away and almost instantly sold them for another $30.00 plus shipping to someone in Bosnia. I paid $2.00 for those.
