Our two oldest children recently decided to put a lot of Cars toys on eBay. They decided which of the Disney Cars toys they no longer played with and got them all together. They arranged them for a photo shoot, deciding which car should be next to which other car. They downloaded everything onto the computer (with the help of dad). Then they waited to see what would happen during the next week.
The bids really took off the first few hours and then they stalled. They jumped again once midweek. The last day was fun to watch as each hour they climbed more and more.
The bid closed and left each boy earning about $45. They were so proud and excited to find ways to spend/save their new earnings. Our middle boy wants to buy one small toy and save the rest for a real car for when he is 16 - A CORVETTE!!!!
I am pleased with how well it all went and that they had so much success. It shows them that the sacrifice of old toys can go a long way. And I love that it helped clean out my house.
Next step: GARAGE SALE
