Our 1st Sale

Today, Karina made a quick sale from a portable charcoal grill & half full bag of briquettes. Around the time we started the project, we were coming home late one night and noticed the grill in a pile of our neighbor's garage at the curb for pick up. So, yes after some thought and feedback from friends, we decided it was ok to dumpster dive. 

The grill was in pretty decent shape, but needed some TLC. So, after hosing it down and a little bit of elbow grease (more like degreaser actually), it was looking quite new again. It was definitely worth the time spent cleaning it in the chilly afternoon air, because the posting on a local Facebook group page got a lot of bites very quickly. 

After messaging a meeting location with an interested buyer that same morning, Karina met up with her and received the $10 cash. Since we were at $12.06 and made another $10, we will give away the extra $2.06 and that makes us happy. 

Step 12 is complete! On to step 13 where we take this $20 and turn it into $40.
