The total sale can be estimated by calculating the total cost of the small boxes and the total cost of the large boxes.
Total cost of small boxes = 8 small boxes * $12 each = $96
Total cost of large boxes = 3 large boxes * $17 each = $51
Therefore, the most reasonable estimate of the total sale of the wooden boxes is $96 + $51 = $147.
Therefore, the most reasonable estimate would be option A. $260.
