As time goes on it is getting harder for my grandmother to go with me to yard sales and thrift stores. With that in mind, I need to start thinking about alternative means of stocking up on items for my eBay store. I need a way to bring home a large quantity of items that will keep me busy for a couple of weeks.
I thought about putting an ad in craigslist offering to take left over yard sale items off of people's hands. but hen realized that I wouldn't be able to take anything that didn't fit into my station wagon.
Another thought was to give storage locker auctions a try. My local storage unit facility just put out a flier telling everyone about their up coming storage auction. It's not until the 21st and there is a good chance I may walk away empty handed. I did a quick google search and found a couple of storage auctioneers. They do auctions all over Northern California, so I have to wait until they come back to Eastern Sacramento area.
I also looked up just regular old estate auctions too and found a company that holds events in my area. I am so excited! Between the storage auctions and the estate sales, I may only have to go out once or twice a month for in inventory! Besides I think auctions are exciting!
