#18 Sell Sea Shells by the Sea Shore

This one we had to leave until the end of our stay, cuz as much as we love embarassing ourselves we, umm, well our sea shells were of questionable quality.



But we went ahead with it, and if we're gonna do something we do it properly, so we took an ad out in the paper and duly set up our sea-shell sale stand by the sea shore. With all 5 sea shells (and 5 books) for sale.


And we actually sold stuff! (see our first customer photo). We got 5 books and 1 sea shell sold. We were so proud that we went and blew our entire profit on rotis next door. It was so worth it.

Our first customer!

We made friends with the other sellers next to us and ended up donating our unsold shells to our neighbors. I promised them a prize if they managed to get them sold. They confidently told me that people buy weird shit. So true.
