12/13 &14 Wk end sales

Sunday night (late). Friday, Saturday & sunday were 12 hrs days. Wow we have sold 900 trees. Over all the people have been nice. Unfortunately there are some that are rude. Wanting deep discounts and using the phrase ..... we can go to WAL-MART and we tell them .."then go". One thing about Bennett's trees, they are fresh. We hear about the other places were the trees are dying or dried out. our hrs are 9am-9m. I start at 8am to get the lot looking nice , the booth clean, etc before opening the gate. Yesterday we had people waiting to get in before nine. By 9:30 Bunny & I sold five trees. We had 6 guys selling and putting the trees on the cars. Each one made way over a 100.00 in tips. Not bad. Our projected tree sale was 120 , we did 163.
Big rain storm coming in tonight. I' m sure its going to make a mess for us. Getting really cold.
