Went to the little village craft sale five minutes from home from 9.00AM to 3.00PM
My average at those little village sales is usually around $350 to $400.00. Had some nice repeat sales from previous customers plus lots of new ones .
Took home $891.00 all cash except one small check . Out of that came twenty dollars each for two tables and lunch for both of us at $6.00 each .
Only sold one of the six little RM boxes I had and sold no hollow forms. Ringmaster Bowls were practically all that were selling from my display this time . . Sold one third of my stock because went with the three big tote boxes packed full (that I showed in another thread) and came home with two full .
Happy camper today and it just goes to show if you price according to your area the sales will happen . Another village sale coming up next Saturday farther from home and then another one in another village half an hour from home. If I don't do as well at those I will still have a good average.
I didn't really expect to do that well in November because the December ones are usually better closer to Christmas. So far I don't have any booked in December because the one in the closest town raised their table rental to $75.00 each and I was there last year and didn't do as well as at the little village ones.
