Flea Mart



we are setting up our 'store' now....more like mat store. Really! we are so clueless as to how to arrange our stuff!



Next, friends and cousins have arrived to help out! Even our colleagues came down to buy stuff from us!!! heeheh. Soon the hot scorching afternoon sun was shining down on us, and out come the umbrellas! okay i didnt take any pictures here cos we all looked so auntie-like! how embarrassing...so unglam!!!



More photo taking here...all smiling away...of cos, if not how to make business? I keep smiling at my customers ok...from 3pm till 1030pm...and i bend and crawl till i had a backache! So tiring this flea mart business. I was telling wj that this will be the first and last time for me!!!!
Kudos to those who have been doing this for alternate saturdays every month!
THIS IS HARD EARN MONEY PEOPLE!


See...the people here ah, drive such a hard bargain! $1 they also want to bargain with us...crazy man and i'm selling zara, mango, topshop, miss selfridge over here! They think im selling pasar malam clothes....sheesh.
There was even this blangah ah, walked up and down our stall 4 times! 4 times and every time he wanted the tee for $2 instead of $3. In the end after the 4th time he came down to bargain...we gave him for $2. We really admire his perserverance, determination and of cos bargaining skills. *bleah* we give up lah, no fight against him.





Lastly i really want to thank my friends and colleagues who made their way down just to encourage and support us!!!! and of cos my family and cousin who stayed almost the whole day with me, buying me drinks and food and of cos looking after my things in case someone steals them!!!!
It was a wonderful experience despite the backaches! hahaha...and wouldnt be a success without our family and friends..and of cos a sunny weather...gosh they should really put cooler fans attached to the ceilings or columns...phew!
And.
now i'm proud to say that

"I've come and done it all!"


ps: just in case you are wondering how much we made....we managed to sell $300 plus worth of goodies! *smirk*
