Garage Sale Junkie? Get a Price Tagging Gun
My abuela and her friend Láura love garage sales. They have a method to their madness: every Saturday morning, after breakfast of Cuban toast and café con leche, they’re out the door by 7 a.m. and then they hit the streets in Láura’s white Buick LeSabre. They’re armed with flyers advertising different sales, and cruise neighborhoods to find hidden gems.
They come home around 1 p.m. with the old LeSabre’s trunk full of stuff. But they don’t just keep their finds for themselves—they end up selling the stuff at the Sunday flea market. These ladies might be old, but they have some business sense. They have their own booth where they make a killing reselling all of their old garage sale finds. As a gift to commemorate the success of their flea market endeavors, I bought them a price tagging gun. At first, they didn’t think they would use it. But after I showed them it worked, they are obsessed with their new price tagging gun. My abuela loves walking around and tagging stuff—she wonders how they ever priced things by hand! She and her business partner have also said that customers appreciate the easy-to-read pricing labels. No more scribbly hand-writing to decipher.
