Some are only in name apparently. There is a local group on facebook which is a 24 hour bidding site. Over 3000 people belong and I have been so succesfull selling there, much better than if I would have had a garage sale (or carboot sale) Ebay is not that big in Canada because our cost of postage is very very high.Cheapchickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158208632054014311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302691153455448442.post-23451971834936970222016-10-03T13:33:16.539-07:002016-10-03T13:33:16.539-07:00Yikes, yes, definitely we won't be doing that ...Yikes, yes, definitely we won't be doing that to our kids either.

And, although I don't cook, I do love farmers markets. Our nephew and niece-in-law started one in Pierre, South Dakota. We weren't there the right day to see it last month, but we did get to visit the farm and see all they're doing. Amazing and delicious.Moving with Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12954028272162285597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302691153455448442.post-52403270912560860482016-09-29T10:11:51.236-07:002016-09-29T10:11:51.236-07:00That is one gorgeous pumpkin field!

Every time I read someone's story about how they've had to downsize a parent, it makes me glad that I chose to downsize my own life and live simply in my older age. My dad is 86 and has Parkinson's dementia. He still lives at home (with an aide), in a 5 bedroom house full of stuff.Lorrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15328674280714013955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302691153455448442.post-83516921303966451102016-09-28T22:13:27.053-07:002016-09-28T22:13:27.053-07:00Your farmers market sounds wonderful, we decided t...Your farmers market sounds wonderful, we decided to give one a try a while back when we were trying to avoid supermarkets it was very disappointing full of produce from abroad which is not my idea of a farmers market so it was back to the supermarket for us. We do only buy British produce though. How do you sell on Facebook? I've sold loads on eBay and felt a bit burnt out with that too I must get going again when I'm home as we need to replenish our travel fund too.
