prairieannie Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 Well my very first show is under my belt now, and boy does it feel great! After a bit of drama in the beginning, and as I stated in an earlier post, Friday and Saturday were looking good, a whole lot better than I had hoped. When it was all said and done today, I had pretty much sold out of almost everything. I did have 4 gift baskets left, and 8 (pint) candles left and 3 (half pint) candles left. Also had 2 small bottles of lotion lol. In light of the way it all began, I was absolutely thrilled. Judging only from the inventory out, I am reasonably sure that I am the only vendor who even came close to a complete sell out. The show was set up with a central cash register, so I don't have an exact dollar amount yet, and won't get a check for my proceeds for a week...but I can tell you that I did at LEAST 7 times my booth fee, and that's estimating low. Biggest seller was air freshener spray and pint sized candles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meridith Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 That is so cool!!! I am very happy for you. :yay:Congratulations. I had a show like that this weekend too (one with one cash register) and I was also the top seller. It feels good, doesn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
