We're Outrageous

first of all we had a yard sale in the middle of november and everyone was freezing. but they came. but, our prices were enough to scare them away. one woman just walked off the property at the idea that we would want fifty cents for an assortment of fabrics. there were probably several yards there, but apparently our high prices were enough to make her take her business elsewhere. she was only willing to pay a quarter. she was rather upset as we called after her that a quarter would be fine... and didn't look back. of course there are the people who seemed shocked that so many things were "only" a quarter. it's amazing to me how many people thought they were getting deals and yet how many people thought they were getting ripped off. my favorite of the day was the guy who got upset because we did not provide him with a box to take his hangers from the free pile after the sale was over. who complains about lack of service at a yard sale? when it's over? and it's free?? seriously people. you confuse me.

The end! The final yard-sale! No more nick-nacks, no more Italian porcelain ducks, no more neighbors dirty looks...well, maybe...
Still, congratulations are in order.
Congratulations!

As for being outrageous, I agree. You're outrageous...outrageously beautiful!
