.... and wondering if there are any "rules" I should be aware of. I've read the responses on here saying to just show up with your wares and claim a spot - but surely there are folks that go for a repeat location?? My goal is to showcase my jewelry and hopefully make some extra $$, but NOT to bump anyone out of thier "spot". Any suggestions?? Is it expected to check with a business before you set up outside their door step?

Also - any suggestions for a good time to arrive and start set-up? ....and how do you guys handle money exchange - checks OK? Thank you thank you for any info - hope to meet lots of people!

    It's first come, first served. You may want to introduce yourself to the business, but that's more of a "be polite" sort of thing - and the business may have someone already lined up for their stoop. People, of course, have their favorite spots, but I don't think anything is set in stone. Get there between 3 and 4, earlier means you get a better spot. You can do checks if you want to, some people out there even have those little credit card slidey things, but cash is the main form of payment.

    Good luck sellin'!
