$100!

Those four bar stools sittin' in a row just sent me past the $100 mark! 

I bought these from my dad who is trying to clear out the storage unit.

They cost me $25. 

I sold them for $100. 

Profit: 300%! 

That's me getting past the $100 mark! 

Thousand dollars here I come! 

I'm Still Here!

I didn't disappear. 

I know I haven't posted in a while.

But, if you look above you'll see that nugget of joy.

I like to call it the "Box-Rocket!" 

My mom and I are doing a road trip for Christmas. 

Right now I'm in St. George, UT. 

Anyways I am working on some purchases and will post as soon as the transaction is done. 

Hang in there Lincolnators! 

Ooooo I like that!

LINCOLNATORS!

The Christmas Tree

Yesterday, my dad told me about some stuff he was trying to get rid of in the storage unit we filled up when we moved a while ago. 

He told me about a pre-lit Christmas tree.

I jumped on it. 

I bought it from him for $5 (thanks Dad!). 

Sold it on Craigslist for $20. 

That's a 300% profit! 

Boom sauce! 

Craziness!

Tis the season to be... stressed! 

So unfortunately not everything has been going smoothly here at My 2 Lincolns. 

The $25 Game Stop gift card I sold for $20 only ended up having $9.75 on the card. 

So the guy I sold it to wanted his money back (rightly so). 

Then the guy that sold it to me, Ben, was gracious enough to give me $5 back. 

Stuff like this happens, Ben sold it to me thinking it had the full $25 on it. 

There's not much you can do about that. 

I suppose I should have checked the amount on the card before I sold it. 

Anyways, I'm down $15 from where I was.

That puts me at $22.90. 

Let the buying begin! 

Day Wooo!!!

Last night I sold the TV!!

Thanks to Craigslist! 

Got $10 out of it. 

That makes a profit of %900!!

Alright now if only I could make that kind of profit every day on $1,000!! 

Stopped the Games

I sold the GameStop gift card.

Someone couldn't pass up the discount.

Seemed like a good Christmas gift.

So, I bought it for $5.

Sold it for $20.

That makes a profit of...

400%!!

June in December

I was over at my friend Ben Junes house helping him move some things today.

I told him about My Two Lincoln's and what I'm doing.

He thought it was a good idea so he sold me some things.

He sold me a $25 Game Stop gift card for $5.

He also sold me an old Daewoo tv for $1. 

Any buyers?

The Jig

Yesterday, after my Facebook posts about delivering Cook Out trays with a jig for $10 I received quite a response. 

I had two takers.

After some late night deliveries I ended up using my $5.18 to purchase a cook out tray.

After delivering the first I went and got another.

When the night was all said and done I made a total of $13.90!

My Profit: 168%

It's all in the jig!
