I'm fried... LOL

I am officially FRIED! Whirlwind 8 days... Huge 2 day event last weekend and a new 1 day event today. Fried literally and figuratively... it was HOT today, pure misery, but sales were good so it wasn't a total loss. 

Here's the breakdown...
Last Saturday - 9 hours
Last Sunday - 5 hours
Today - 7 hours

21 total selling hours. Total of 192 puzzles sold. Average of 9 per hour = one every 7 minutes. Exhausting! Yet fruitful. LOL

I have another big event in 3 weeks. I'll skip my weekly farmers market between now and then, I'm truly burnt out right now, besides, I need to restock, my inventory is very low and the holiday season is sneaking up on me with several events already lined up.

Pictures of today's event - 135 vendors, nice quality stuff that I saw during a quick walkthru during setup.

Glad you had a great event.  You might wish to look into using an old car battery and an inverter to get you some power so that you can run some fans.  It is amazing what a slightly cooler stream of air from your booth will do for sales   especially on those blistering days.  Thanks for sharing this with us.

I have one of these to run a small fan and to keep my phone charged for accepting credit cards... but today, the fan was virtually useless just blowing hot air on me.  LOL
