So tired. Definitely need to arrange some chairs for next fortnight's stall. Yeah, back at the market next fortnight. My sister who originally said "we'll probably only this one" and who after last time agreed that once a month would be good, told customers we'd be back next fortnight. So next fortnight it will be.
I did well today and mainly from repeat buyers, which is good. We didn't seem to be in a good position thought. When the Show is on, for 4 days in October, the building is the cattle pavillion. The remaining 50 weekends of the year it's Esk Market. Anyway,it's a square u-shape |_| and another 'room' that runs between the 'legs' so:
|-| and theres another room in the inner bit that has fruit & vege stuff. Visitors seem to stick to the other |_| though, the - bit is quieter. At least, last time we got more passing by/curious lookers type traffic, this time a lot of the actual buyers came looking for us (which is good, of course). So next we've asked to be on the outside again.
The Russian/Soviet coins sold well. This means I can buy more? Ihad a bowl of world coins (3 for $1) and one guy almost scooped the lot. He's coming back next to buy more. The individually bagged world coins are a touch priciers. Means I do need to buy more world coins though. Which will probably be a "100 coin selection" lot i.e. a lot of stuff I already have a lot of. Still, it's good to have cheap stock on hand that actually sells. It does bring in customers to look at the more interesting stuff, after all.
