That's just awful!
I agree...people aren't buying and what they are spending their money on is junk, in my opinion. They'd rather spend $50 on a piece of crap made in a 3d world country that will fall apart in a year than the same amount on something that will last a lifetime. I made more last year in 4 hours then I did this year in 6 hours........ |

I have done many church bazars and craft shows, each and every one of them was a waste of time. I find most people do not want to spend the money for quality. I get frustrated by the people that come back hour after hour waiting for you to drop your prices or even give it away for free. Needless to say I do not do church sales anymore.

:-) I don't understand why you cannot take deductions on your taxes. There is a maximum of what you can take, but there is basically no minimum. The catch is that you must keep a record of your deductions indicating the date, who you donated to (some charitable organizations provide a receipt), an acceptable dollar amount, and whether you donate cash or goods. This is available on any 1040 tax return. Indicating cash or check number is also useful for tracking your donations.

I stopped doing craft shows for that very reason, not even making my table fees. I still go to craft shows, but I don't spend the money I used to either!

So Sorry.... maybe it was too close to Christmas and everyone had already bought presents. I know the economy is tough, but that might be another reason... I did fairly well with the ones I did in November. Perhaps you should try and earlier one next year.
