As advised in previous posts my brother and his wife are selling up everything they own in Australia to travel the world. As an Ashton, naturally my brother had to make sure the lead up to the travel was just as fun as the traveling itself - hence the start of his blog Sell Everything And Travel.
Now when I think "sell everything" the things that come to mind are the large items, house, furniture, assets, electronics etc. but my brother is a little bit more exact in his terminology, selling everything right down to a clothes peg.
What started out as a joke between friends became a phenomenon amongst the followers of Sell Everything And Travel.
A Random Green Peg by eBay seller saashton
A run of the mill, stock standard, green clothes peg!
Initially hoping for a laugh I monitored the bids on eBay as they came in, AU$5.00 to AU$24.50 continuing strong to AU$32.00 but I would have never in my days expected to see a single green peg to sell for AU$56.00!!!
Lets just say the experiment created more shock than laughter, I was suddenly wishing I owned clothes pegs...
I can not wait to see what is next up for auction in the adventure to Sell Everything And Travel.
As much as I love and support my family, I will have to get cracking for the year of 2013 as I can not let my brother outdo me in the adventure department. Sibling rivalry is a great motivator :)
