Speed Selling On Line: Another Garden Table And A Beach Chair

Some outdoor furniture items are really hot during the summer season and guarantee to help me make ends meet when necessary.

I found this cute wooden table about six weeks ago and immediately decided it wasn’t for keeps as I own a garden set already and some extra cash would be welcome. Just left it in a corner to ‘rest’ for a while. That’s because if found at the dump in front of the house I’m sometimes a bit scared the donating neighbour might see the transaction, LOL. Friday last week it was a good day for picture taking, I listed it 3 pm, had a good bid at 5.30, table was picked up and paid for at 7. Quickest sell ever!

This beach chair saved my life a couple of years ago. I had it for a long time but didn’t use it a lot. One desperate morning I put it up (no worries about the neighbours this time), went to work, got a fair bid during the day and it was also picked up in the early evening so I could still go for groceries for the next few days. Phew! Lucky soon after it was payday.

Speed selling sounds like a good idea to me. Happy to hear these old treasures were able to find new homes.

Flattened Cans

Two bread bags full of flattened soda and beer cans ready to go to the recycle shop. Bags from full 800 gram loafs, the cans make a bit over...
