AMAZING WEEKEND: DAY 1: FRIDAY

AMAZING WEEKEND: DAY 1

FRIDAY:

On Friday my best friend and I decided we were gonna sell some clothes. There is no better place than SF to sell clothes, and my favorite place to do this is on Haight Street. We headed to the city bags of clothes in hand. The first stop was Wasteland.

I sold a Marc by Marc Jacob wallet and a top and I took the cash, my friend was not so lucky. On to the next stop.

My friend sold 2 tops, and used the store credit to buy a pair of sandals that were real leather and in a hard to find size 10. She scored! I was not so lucky. On to the last and final stop.

At our last stop we were both able to sell multiple items, and took the cash. We were feeling good about the $ in our pocket but still had a bunch of clothes left. What do you do with the left over clothes? Well that is the best part of selling on Haight Street....there is a good will.

 When your done making $, you can donate the rest of the stuff you don't want to charity! It's funny because all 3 stores purchased different pieces from us, and goodwill will take anything. Now we had some cash to spend so we hit up my favorite store to go to on Haight.


Oh SO Good jewelry store front.

I scored a necklace with my new cash for cheap. We were in the store for hours, they have SO much stuff to look at. If you love bling this is the store for you!

All that selling and shopping can work up an appetite and a good excuse for a cocktail, so we went to Cha Cha Chas and enjoyed some tapas and sangria.

We headed back to San Jose feeling accomplished! When we arrived my boyfriend informed us there was an event going on in Downtown that night - Sub ZERO. We didn't have to be told twice; music, art and beer and we are there! We hopped on light rail and headed on to the next adventure.

My beer bracelet from the event.

Needless to say we had a great time! We saw art, heard music, and drank LOTS of  beer. It was 4 beer tickets for $10. All three of us got tickets, but all night long strangers kept giving us their tickets. SCORE! I would definitely go to this event in the future. One of the best parts of the night was the light rail ride home. There was a guy dressed in mostly leather with a guitar playing Johnny Cash songs. Couldn't ask for a better Friday!
