WHY STEAL LITTLE THINGS FROM THE YARD SALE WHEN YOU CAN JUST HIDE OUT, WAIT TILL THE END, AND THEN STEAL THE WHOLE CASH BOX WITH EVERYTHING THEY MADE INSTEAD?
I’m Sure Many Have Seen Our ad for, or have Been to our Yard Sale On Broadway. I myself have just been going to school and unfortunately my Fiancé was laid off and has been laid off for the past month, causing us to get a little behind on our rent, and really, behind on all of our Bills. Which has put us in an unfortunate situation, unfortunate but manageable. But that was until now, and My Car Broke down on top of everything else. Which happens to be the only vehicle our family has. And with two children, one of them being disabled, being without a vehicle is not an option. So we've had to figure Somthing out. With my Fiancé not working we've had the time to put into this yard sale and really put it together. Which honestly was a whole lot harder and a lot more work than one would have expected. We put a lot of time and hard work into this yard sale. But it was Necessary, it is Necessary, Firstly to Fix our Family’s only Car, But just as equally Important to be able to Pay our overdue Rent and other Bills, which continue to be stack up more and more everyday it seems. We’ve Spent the last two weeks going through every single thing we own, picking up Free furniture and other items that way already had, painting or refurnishing them, and literally putting everything and anything together to make this yard sale the best and most profitable that we possibly could. We Put all of our time and effort into it hoping to pull us out of this little rut that we are in. And to be Honest the first few days were and have been going great, some of the items we put real time into sold, as well as a few bigger ticket items like our rolling tool box and a few others, not to mention the continuous turn around and sale of a lot of our other items as well. Literally in the first few days we had already earned enough to have my car fixed and a good start toward our rent and other bills when last Night a little after 9 o clock pm, the time we shut down the sale, my Fiancé ran a bike around back to lock in our Garage when two older ladies came through our Yard sale without anyone’s knowledge at the time, with it being dark one would think that the sale would be closed for the day, but these two older ladies went up onto our Front porch, literally right next to our open front door and Stole our Locked Money Box. She tried to get into it first and when she couldn’t open it, she took the whole box with literally every single thing we have earned inside. Not only that, but being in the situation we were in, what little money we had before hand we had to put into the box to make potential change for the sale. So not only did they steal everything we made from the sale, but also every penny that we had before hand as well. So Please I am asking if anyone could possibly help ID one of these two ladies and help us get our money back. We literally have multiple Cameras, many of which that were directly on our sale, and we have these two ladies clear as day come through and Rob us, All of it on Camera. We have called the Police and filled out a police report, But the Police said they can’t really do anything for us, which is so crazy because we have the whole thing literally on camera. But Regardless still, what kind of person would honestly do that? If someone’s having a yard sale, obviously they are in hard times and desperately need to make money that they would be selling their things. And right now we are that and more. And still this person literally comes up for no reason other then dishonesty, Greed, and No Moral Values and steals Every single thing we have. Who Steals from the Needy? That’s just crazy to me. So if anyone could help with any information about this situation, who these women are or anything at all. It would be greatly appreciated. And then we've also had multiple people request and recommend that we make a gofundme account to try to help us get back what we lost, and help us get the money that we desperately need for our car, our rent, and our bills that are in peril due to this persons actions and intentional act of dishonesty. We are a good, honest, family just trying to make it through these tough times. Times that when finally starting to become promising are just taken from us. So if anyone out there can help in any way we would appreciate it more then you could ever know. And if you would like to come check out our Yard sale and maybe buy Somthing to help us make back this money that was wrongly stolen from us, please let us know as well. We will be out here all weekend, rain or shine. But if you do come this morning try to bring exact change because I won’t have change to break bigger bills due to not having money at all. Starting all over again! But Honestly that’s all we can do, our cars still broken and our bills are still due, so giving ups not an option! Please Help and Wish us Luck!
