I don't sell anything on Ebay, only directly from my B&M store and have just recorded my best ever June sales figures since I went solo 6 years ago, so I'm wrapped.

June month turnover as of 11.00am today, the last trading day for the month is $278,678.07 excluding GST. with 2 hours of trading to go before I close up for the weekend.

I think I can afford to treat myself to a 12 inch Subway on the way home today 😛

What downturn? lol.

I have reached the 200 mark.

Sold 208 for the month so far. Has been an increase in the last couple of months but not as good as last year yet.

It can only get better "I HOPE" lol.

No matter what July brings Sexy, you can bet it'll be blamed or attributed to the new Carbon Tax kicking in.

Well im up to 8 so far lol, if people want things they will still buy, do they stop buying smokes cause they cant afford it? no, do they still buy things when in debt? yes.

Last july was only 73, ill be happy if i match it, but each month so far has beaten each of last years months so i dont see why it should change now.

Im off to bed, darn pills for my back if i dont have them all the time they keep me awake when i do start taking them again lol

July is usually a good sales month for me because I do 'Cristmas in July' promos of lines I don't usually carry the rest of the year, but I've never recorded a first day of trading for July as I had yesterday @ a tad under $22,000, so I'm praying the rest of the month will follow on just as good rather than it being a flash in the pan to begin with and a slump following it.

I only employ one full timer besides myself and one part-timer to keep my overheads down, but yesterday I could have done with half a dozen people working in my store at times.

The biggest temptation for me is to buy in more stock than usual, but there's a little voice talking to me at the back of my mind warning me not to get carried away with taking on too much and end up getting stuck with it.

Shouldn't you have started a July thread by now, shc?

[sexy*harley*chick]
