Both boys proved today that they could have a future in sales. Today was our yard sale. For once, the kids slept late while I got up early. Go figure. I woke them up at about 7:30. Our yard sale had been in full swing for about half an hour by then. All I had to say was, "Get up. We have customers," and they both got right out of bed.
They were good at announcing "Lemonade for sale," every time a new car pulled up. And they did pretty well too. They made $14 selling 25¢ cups of lemonade.
They also helped sell other things at the yard sale. Thomas talked a lady that had bought some stuffed animals into buying the stuffed animal holder we had as well. He demonstrated it for her and finally talked her into it. And English was not her first language, so he must have had some convincing gestures as well.
Timothy demonstrated the toys for people and kept offering other items that we had for sale while they were paying.
It was too funny!
I think our customers appreciated their ice cold lemonade and the excellent customer service that came along with it.
