Our market costs were about R70 for petrol for the car for the trip, and R50 for the stall space. Our market day profit was thus R605. We also got a …
We had a really bad day of sales at the Gonubie Main Road Christmas Market at the library on 6 December 2014. In fact, we sold absolutely nothing. A good few people looked at and admired our craft market products, saying things like “How clever” and “How creative” and “What a brilliant idea” but nobody actually bought anything.
We were up at 4am ahead of our trip to Thomas River Historical Village for the day. We were excited. We had not been to the Thomas River Historical Village before.

More than 50 items listed in our List of What to Sell at a Flea Market. We’ve made this list of what to sell at a flea market or craft market for ourselves, but since we like to help others with thinking of work from home ideas through the articles we write and publish on some of our sites, we thought to share our list of ideas here on Beachy too.

It’s almost a sin to live at the coast and never visit the beach. If it’s inspiration you seek, sit on the beach for a few minutes (preferably longer) or take a walk on the beach, and just muse.
