A painful lesson...

So - Mark and I are getting new furniture for our new digs. Pretty cool. We get to actually plan and paint and decorate a room. Not just a room, but all the rooms! So, we're getting rid of the old stuff. This morning we got rid of the desk for a nice sum of 50$. Honestly, we just want this stuff out of the garage. Plus, we don't like to schtick people. So, during naptime I listed our living room furniture set and entertainment center. Within twenty minutes I had two pings. One for each. The lady that wanted the furniture set wanted to know if she could barter to 150. Sure why not? (listed at 175) After several emails, we end up agreeing to renting a uhaul (in the ad I definitely said you haul!) and taking it up to her and her fiance this afternoon. Well, if they pay full listing price. 116 dollars and a completely wasted afternoon later, we've made about 60 bux. At least we didn't lose money...

When we say YOU HAUL, we mean YOU HAUL! (well, at least after this we do... sometimes we're too durn nice)
