I wanted to share the results of my first show of the year, because i have gotten so many great ideas and help from you all on here.

All in all not a bad day....I have 4 more this month, so I have to get busy replenishing....
I did not sell 1 single post it note set on a coaster...last year I sold 70,,,,go figure...so now we know what the kids teachers are getting this year! I made 160 of them!!
I have found that the less expensive stuff sells better..and people love the way things are packaged. I know I dont have alot of money to spend on "extras" so I tend to undersell myself..but something is better than nothing I say.
Good luck to everyone I hope you sell lots.
ps. im in buffalo NY where money has always been tight
