What I did for Memorial Day...

After no sleep, over heat, and no food, I am hear to tell the tale. I left very, very early Monday morning at 1am (which is considered Monday but still felt like Sunday). I had about only three hours of sleep and drove 45 minutes to Hartville Flea Market to set up. I arrived a 2 am and got one of the few spots left. I had no place to sleep left in my car and it was already well over 70 degrees. So I decided to start unloading my car before it got too hot.
At this point, my adrenaline was pumping and I just ended up setting the whole thing up. I wish I had my first shots after I set up but sold three of my biggest and bestest items within the first hour or so. Here are some pics I took when I realized I brought my camera.








I had a great time but was exhausted when I got home. I think I made the most money I have ever at Hartville and definitely beat out everyone around me. I came home with a ball of money and a car still filled with stuff. I met some fun people and some old friends. I usually set up once or twice a year on the big days (Memorial Day, Fourth of July, or Labor Day). I had tons of people tell me I had the best stuff and the best prices. I just wish I had more customers. I think I will try to shoot for Labor Day. That means I needs some good auctions.
Here are some of the items I came home with that I will be listing on Ebay -
A huge lot of antique wooden printers blocks



A unique metal mid century magazine rack (which I think was a store display for TV Guide)



And last but not least - A Metal Bunny Rabbit Playground Ride On Toy
