Ebay Experiment: Success!

The boppy sold, and I made 1.64 more than I paid for it. My goal was to make at least 1.50, so I
barely made it. Still, I am encouraged to try this again. I can now enjoy my 1.50 linen lined J. Jill
linen pants that much more, knowing that it was paid for by selling something else. WOO-HOO!

One More E-Bay Item

One of my goals this year was to try to recoup the cost of the things I buy at the thrift store by picking up something to sell. I got this idea from Meredith, and today I'm trying it out.

Behold the Boppy! This is my first attempt at buying something specifically to sell, with a particular price goal in mind. My hoped for price is not high. I just want it to at least enough to "pay for" the other items I bought for my household today, and the cost of the boppy itself, of course. I'm not going to mention how much I spent until after the experiment is over. Stay tuned-I'll let you know how it goes!
