We had a few issues this year with the weather not cooperating (rained almost all day Saturday which would normally be my best day for snacks) but still did great in sales. DH and I made $916.00. We kept out $100.00 and put the rest in the mortgage checking account for Octobers Principle Payment.
I made some changes to snacks and added little bags of chips for .50 each and I also bought brand name Coke and Diet Coke because so many people were requesting it. I charged .50 for the generic pop and .75 for the Brand name, which still came out to a similar profit of .35 - .40 profit per can, depending on what kind of deal I got when I purchased it. House feels a LOT lighter with over $1300 less merchandise in it over the course of 2 weeks!
Here is the breakdown:
$4.00 Misc Science supplies from DHs classroom
$1.00 Clothes my step-mom didn't want to store/mark
$5.50 Clothes my cousin didn't want to store
$8.25 Clothes my Moms friend didn't want to store/mark
$8.00 Clothes a coworker didn't want to store/mark
$26.75 Total from FREE items that were donated to me!
$85.75 DH Sports Cards
Snacks
$13.00 Juice
$6.00 Cupcakes
$26.50 Pop
$30.75 Coke/Diet Coke
$39.00 Water
$30.50 Brownies
$18.50 Chips
$125.00 Snocones
Total Snacks = $289.25

Total for everything pictured was a profit in my pocket of $1.57!!
I had some $3.00 off Biore manufacturer coupons that I wanted to use. I wasn't sure where to go to find a good price where I could get some cheap/free items. I decided to check at Kmart since it is close to my work. I never shop at Kmart because I have bad, bad, bad customer service there, long, slow lines and our store seems very dingy. Not a fan. But I went in and checked it out and found some Biore Make-up Removing Towelettes for $2.74, plus they are BOGO 50% off - Perfect! So I got 2 and took them to the register.
Here is what I think I will be doing:
Biore Make-up Removing Towelettes
(1) $2.74 Regular Price
(1) $1.37 (50% off)
-$3.00 Mfr Coupon
-$3.00 Mfr Coupon
= -$1.89
So I anticipate I will pay $0, or may have to pay tax
But I get rang up, by a "Customer Service Supervisor" and she tells me my total is $1.57. HUH? I say, "That doesn't sound right, both of the items are under $3.00, and I have 2 $3.00 coupons. How are you getting $1.57" She says, "Well one of the was $2.74 and one was $1.37 and then I took off your two coupons and it come to $1.57". ???? Were you even listening to what you were saying? That doesn't add up at all? So she looked it again and then said, "Oh I guess the 2nd coupon didn't come off." So she adjusted it and then the total said
-$1.57. Perfect, now I won't pay anything. I anticipate she will give me my receipt. Instead she hands me my receipt....and $1.57 in cash out of the register!! WHAT?! That was new for me! I don't know if this is a normal Kmart policy, but I have never been actually handed cash when I am at the register. If your total is $0 or negative, then you just get it free here (ND), I am thinking that was not the correct way for her to handle that....and she was the supervisor?? Well anyways, I was pumped about the deal!
So the Biore Make-Up Removing Towelettes came out to a profit of .78 for one and .79 for the 2nd!!
(Marked $1.50 each for the rummage sale)
*ETA - Sold 2 for $1.50 each at 9/5/13 rummage sale
= $4.57 Profit!!
I also got some Biore at CVS, but was only able to get one. One day they let me use the coupons, and the next day I got a manager who said I couldn't use them since the amount on the coupon was more then the amount of the product. Really wish they would all be trained the same on the coupon policies.
Biore Deep Cleansing Pore Strips
Regular Price $1.99
-$1.99 ($3.00 Mfr Coupon)
Final Price - $0!!
(Keeping these)
Also got some sweet finds in the 90% off bin!
Covergirl Clean Normal Skin Pressed Powder (Bought 3)
Regular Price $7.99
-$7.19 Sale Price
-$1.50 Mfr Coupon (3)
Final Price - $0!! All 3 Free!!
(Marked for $4.00 each for rummage sale)
*ETA - Sold 1 for $4.00 at 9/4/14 rummage sale

Ok so here is the deal I was planning to do on the Herbal Essences:
Herbal Essences Shampoo or Conditioner 10.1oz
Regular Price $3.99 each
Sale Price 2/$5 ($2.50 each)
-$2.50 Mfr BOGO Free coupon
*$1.00 EB for buying 2 (limited to 1 per card)
= $1.50 for 2, or .75 per bottle
But here is the deal I acually ended up getting
Regular Price $3.99 each (Bought 22 bottles, $87.88 total)
Sale Price 2/$5 ($2.50 each, $55.00 total)
-$54.89 ($4.99 x 11) BOGO Free coupons
*Receive $11 EB ($1 for every 2 bottles purchased)
Final Price $10.89 Money Maker!!
(Keeping 2 for myself and selling the other 20, marked for $2.00 each for the rummage sale)
If I sell them all that would be a profit of $40.00 (20 bottles x $2.00)+$10.89 = $50.89!!
*ETA - Sold 11 bottles for $2.00 each at 8/23/13 rummage sale
*ETA - Sold 7 bottles for $2.00 each at 9/5/13 rummage sale
*ETA - Sold 2 bottles for $2.00 each on 6/16/14 on FB
Total Profit = $50.89!!
I was only planning on getting 2 bottles for the .75 each since you were only supposed to get the EB deal once per card, and the coupon should have taken off $2.50. But the coupons ended up taking off $4.99 instead of $2.50 and for some reason the EB printed everytime I bought 2, instead of just the once!
So I came out with 22 bottles of shampoo conditioner and I made $10.89!! SUPER DEAL!
I had about 20 of the BOGO Free coupons, I used 11 and gave the rest to my Mom and she also cashed in on this deal.

Normally the only time I move my inventory is with the rummage sales, but today I made a sale to a co-worker and made $8.00!
They asked if I had any coupons for Renu Contact Solution, which I did and I gave to them, but then I let them know I had some for sale as well for $4.00 per bottle and they asked for 2!
These sell for $6.99 each at Target, so a good deal for both of us!
I will add the $8.00 to the Mortgage Checking Account.

Check out these cute little riders I found that someone was throwing out! They just need a little soap, water and elbow grease and they will be ready for a kiddo to take a ride! Blows my mind what people throw out....I was driving home and they were sitting on the curb next to the garbage dumpster so I scooped them up. All the light and sound effects buttons still work too! Plan on putting about $5.00 on the Thomas the Tank Engine one, and then maybe $3.00-$4.00 on the others.
*ETA - Sold Thomas for $5.00, Mater for $5.00, and the blue one for $3.00 at the 8/23/13 rummage sale! (I decided to junk the carseat cause it was grossy dirty)
=$13.00 Profit!!

Before
After
My Smell Goods
I cleaned out the kitchen closet, which I hate doing since this is where we keep our garbage can and our recycling bin. I recently bought Febreze Stick and Refresh and put it in there and they work really well, so at least it smells good in there, but inevitably something misses the garbage and gets on the wall/floor, so it is always a joy to clean.....
Anyways, found 4 items to put in the rummage sale, a pack of plastic snowcone cups, a bottle of tiki torch fluid, a pack of Valentines Day cookie cutters, and some furniture floor sliders. Also threw away a few random odds and ends as well.
Now all that is left upstairs in my cleaning/purging/organizing quest is the kitchen! YEAH!
Oh you may be wondering why I have so many sunscreens and bug sprays, that is because DH is a camp director in the summer and kids always end up leaving their sunscreens and bug sprays at the end of the summer and they are never labeled so no way to return them....we also end up with about 5 mismatched socks and 2 pairs of goggles every year...lol.

Found the 90% off bin at CVS filled up with Essie Nail Polish last week. There were probably about 50 bottles in there. I bought 20 - the CUTE colors!
I like stuff like this for the rummage sale cause they are little and easy to store, plus if I didn't sell them they are always good for a little quick gift or stocking stuffer.

Regular Price $8.29
-$7.46 Sale Price
Final Price .83 per bottle!
Free on CVS Giftcard

Let me first say, I REALLY, REALLY wish that CVS would make sure that all of the employees know the correct way to enter their coupons and would all enter them the same. I don't care what is the correct way, as long as they are all doing it the same. Very frustrating to argue with the cashiers cause the last time you bought the same thing it was rang up differently then this time. Anyways....I did score some great deals again this week.
Due to the different ways cashiers were handling the coupons, some of the prices are different for the same items.
**I also got $2.00 this week for using my green bag tag and $5.00 from the Beauty Club!! So I will use those when I have higher purchase totals.**
Revlon Glitter Nail File (Bought 4)
Regular Price $2.27
-$2.27 CVS Coupon from Coupon Machine (4 coupons)
($3.00 off Revlon Item, cashier discounted the coupon down to $2.27)
Final Price 4 for Free!!
(Gave 1 away to a friend and marked the other 3 for $1.50 each for rummage sale)
I think these will sell great at the sale, they are all glittery and I think the shoppers will love them!
*ETA - Sold 1 for $1.50 at 6/15/13 rummage sale
*ETA - Sold 2 for $1.50 each at 9/5/13 rummage sale

I have been really bad at avoiding the extra room the last 2 months or so....finally got in there and got some work done. I got my bookshelf cleaned off and dusted. Got rid of 13 books for the rummage sale. Also got all my CDs together so I can get them put on my MP3 player. I boxed up a bunch of my college books that I still want to keep and will be putting those in the attic for now.
Now the desk, closet, bookshelf and stockpile shelf are all organized and everything is gone through. All that is left is the junk on the floor. Progress!!

Wow ten days without a post...that may be a record for me! Well today I went through our movies (I'm still working in that dumb extra room, but it is slow...and not steady). I took out 15 VHS (yes we still have some of those) and 3 DVDs for the rummage sale. We have been trying to transition our VHS to DVDs so we check out the $5 bin at Walmart and get them from there when we see them. Today we found 2, Indepence Day and The Sandlot. Still probably have close to 45 movies to move over. Saves a ton of room on the movie shelf.
