<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 18914, member: 37"]Used to do a lot of flea markets/antique shows. Seems they really dropped off here 8-10 years ago so I quit doing them. I keep thinking that I will dip my toe back in but it has not been worth it. Last year I did a two day outdoor antique sale. Made $350.00 for $100.00 rent. This year I did a one day flea and made just slightly over $100 for $50.00 rent. Just has not been worth it for the amount of work. </p><p><br /></p><p>Like I said, I am doing things that actually make me some money. Besides a part time job, I have my store space that is doing well. I have shown some of what I am doing for the store in the finds thread. It doesn't cut the hoard quickly but I am making some progress. My part time job slows up considerably in the Winter so I hope to be able to work on organizing and posting on ebay a lot more than I have been lately. You can only eat an elephant one bite at a time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
