In the early 90s, I was a telemarketer at a company called Dial-America. It was easy cash with a flexible schedule while I was in school. Mostly, it was trying to sell magazines or credit cards. I was terrible at it, except for one product: the Family Circle Weekend Crafts. You got the binder and first projects for free, then new patterns came each month. I love crafting so I was good at selling it.
Now, when I go to estate sales, I look for them and wonder if I'm the one who sold it to them! This is the second one I've seen.
