New tactics pay off

Update on the sale:

After having no customers in the first 3 hours, Rachel decided that it was time to be daring. The sale was advertised only within our school community, and since multiple families are leaving, the ratio of buyers to sellers is not in our favor.

So after our friend Amanda came to pick up the vacuum she ordered, she and Rachel went out to the street to solicit buyers amongst the passers-by.

15 minutes later, the door knocked and nearly 20 people were milling through our apartment. I don't know that we made a lot of money, but I do know that most of our stuff is now gone!!!

Just a few big ticket items left.
